best place you can get to in under an hour by car?

The Berkshires. Tanglewood. Jacob's Pillow. (all in W. Massachusetts). Give me 2 hours and I can be in Boston. Give me 3 hours and I can be in NYC.
 
Lodi. 85 wineries, most with tasting rooms. Nice restaurants.
 

Lots of great breweries within an hour of here. Unfortunately one of my favorites closed/merged with another brewery and no longer have a local tasting room/pub.

Some gorgeous lakes. Well maybe slightly more than an hour - 75 minutes.
 
Napa Valley. On a weekend with light traffic, it's less than an hour from home to Yountville.
 
Smithsonian, National Mall, Monuments, Arlington, not much further to Eastern Shore, Annapolis, Baltimore. Beautiful and inspiring, though after all these years visits are less frequent.
