On our retirement trip, we headed south from New England on Nov 1st. We did Myrtle Beach then Hilton Head Island in the first 2 weeks. Shorts and flip-flop weather.
A friend who travels extensively throughout the US and Canada recommended being out of the Rockies after Labor Day. Considering that you'd have to push it hard to get to Utah and back in 2 weeks, I'd suggest not doing that. Don't want to start off a marriage with a lot of stress.
We planned a leisurely intercoastal waterway in Pine Island Sound in Florida on a rented house boat for our twentieth. Boat broke down on the second day out, ended up getting Sea-Towed in and got off the boat. Couldn't get home (Hurricane Sandy). I had been planning the trip for 6 months. DW was very disappointed. I was crushed. Not the best memory.
