Looking for a ‘plan c’ (beehaw.org)

To be very brief, I hate the coldest part of the winter here in Maine (January/February) and need a couple of breaks for my sanity.

I have a ‘plan a’ (visit my brother a couple of times) and a ‘plan b’ (take my eldest son with me to Boston a couple of times).

I would like to have a ‘plan c’ to ensure that I’ll have an avenue of escape.

If you would be so kind to provide me with any ideas, then I would appreciate it very much.

Preferably, the idea would include getting to a place with less cold/snow, be reasonably affordable and not being alone.

Thanks in advance and I’ll repost this, if need be, in a couple of months.

If you've never taken your kids to Arizona, winter is the only time you want to do that. Having been away for so long at this point, when I return for visits, the scenery is breathtaking.

Thanks. I will make a note of it.

Sedona would be an interesting place to celebrate the winter solstice! Some friends who once lived there invited me to go camping in February at a "vortex point". It was a really nice experience but a bit chilly at night.

Thanks. Expanding the Arizona notes.
