Yes, but that hurricane which just clobbered Texas is giving us some pause about living along the Gulf Coast.....
If you could live anywhere in the U.S.

Getting lazier and lazier with upkeep!
Exactly! I would love to live along the ocean, but hurricanes are too common now with these weather patterns. Too much risk of losing everything...

Carlsbad California. A small beach town north of San Diego. I've traveled to many places and have lived in many cities and Carlsbad feels like home. It's just soooo expensive like many places in California.

It sucks because we're torn between living someplace "fun" like Florida vs. doing the responsible thing and settling down in Tennessee (or similar.)
The high cost of living eliminated California a long time ago.

I just put a deposit on a smaller place near the east end of Long Island NY "almost" on the Long Island Sound. If I brine my tank I can fill it with NSW easily. I will miss my home here in central Long Island but it's time to downsize. Hopefully this no maintenance condo will give me more time to "Argue" with my buddy Humble.

You should invite Humble up for a round of golf!I just put a deposit on a smaller place near the east end of Long Island NY "almost" on the Long Island Sound.

Me and the wife want to retire to Florida. Where, not sure. Been to destin many times, but too touristy. We love the ocean, maybe Navarre or Gulf breeze is nice. If I had big bucks, within reason, Marco island is very nice! Lol

I'd love to live in Ithaca, NY again. The Finger Lakes area is where I feel I belong. I'd like to see a lot of other places and maybe one of them would top Ithaca, but I doubt it.
Cheers,

I just don't get how You Folks take the cold winters. I guess Iv'e been in Florida too long. Here On the north east coast The summers are really hot however The winters are very mild. It snowed here once in 1987. It warmed up in a couple of days. Housing & costs of of living are reasonable. No state income here in Fl.

Golf is for Sissies so I don't think Humble plays it.
My dad tried to teach me how to play golf. I hit the ball with a crooked stick as hard as I could. I couldn't find the dang ball after that, so I figured this game is not for me.

No Humble, Golf is not for real Men like ourselves. Maybe if it was played using a rusty cro bar on an active volcano, or in a tropical rain forest populated with ich infected really mean gorilla's then we would play it. But walking around, or worse riding in a Sissy cart on short manicured grass is just to Nerdy and as I said, we are real Manly Men.

I think we could use the carts to have races on the golf course, but it would have to be NASCAR style (with crashes) to be manly.

I wonder if we can put racing slicks on those things and maybe take out the electric motor and add a Hemi.
Here is the view from the back of my new house (almost) that I didn't move into yet. I say almost because I have to walk about 100 yards or stand on my roof to see it clearly. 27 miles out is Connecticut and if you look to the right, and maybe squint, you can see France. Or maybe the shadow of France. OK, you can't see France,

Humble, if you wanted to take my tank I would give it to you as you are the only person I would think to give it to as long as you promise to keep those silly bottles of Prizapro and copper a long distance away.
I will also sell you my house for about a million bucks. Maybe a little less. but there is a Supermodel next door that comes over to feed the fish while I am away so that has to count for half a million.
I will even throw in the snow blower that I just bought and used once.

For those who would choose Hawaii... After living there for almost 20 years... Be prepared, no reef tank without a permit from the State... Cost of living about 200% of that on the mainland U.S. And there are many Hawaiians who don't like the presence of outsiders (aka hauolies.) It was a great ride, but I'm glad to be back on the mainland!
