We go to Illinois and also vacation in other cooler places like Colorado. A lot to like about the mountains during part of the summer. To each his own.
Colorado is a beautiful place all year long, but summers are near-perfect, especially in Colorado Springs where I moved from (runs about ten degrees cooler than the Denver metro area in the summer), and you are then just minutes from the high country (8500 feet and above elevation), where the temps are even cooler, and can get down right chilly on summer nights. I’ll be back for a week or two this summer to visit all my friends there.
