I'll add another vote for Colorado. Wasn't enthralled with the Fredericksburg/DC area. MD is a pit. Orlando is like Hampton Roads for me... great for work and play for a while, but it gets old quick. I will say that if you can find someone to pay you to live out here, Hawaii doesn't suck. When that gets old for me, I'll try the Pacific Northwest next (unless I can con someone into paying me to live in NZ) before I return to Colorado.
