Craig,
You don't have to do anything quite so drastic. Just go to central Florida
ridge and lake region, i.e. MT Dora, etc. for a number of miles of rolling
hills, lakes, farms, forest, and a minimal fall color change. We also go up to
Northern Georgia mountains for some spectacular drives and colors in the fall.
That may be a little far for a weekend, but makes a nice one week trip.

All you folks who've been writing about the beautiful Fall drives in the New
England countryside are making me miserable! Yes, I live in "sunny" South
Florida, where we don't have to put the TR up for several months of Winter.
But I've only had the poor thing out twice in the last few months, due to
daily surprise thunderstorms since May! Now that it's cleared up and cooled
down a few degrees to a perfect roadster environment, there's nowhere to go.
It's totally flat everywhere, the palm trees don't know anything about this
"seasons" idea, and driving up and down along the beach gets pretty boring. I
just announced to my wife that it's time to think about moving back up north.
I'd gladly garage it for the Winter just to enjoy the Fall!
Enjoy it!!
