        The greatest city in the world, just a few hours from some of the most beautiful beaches/coast and good skiing and countryside
        New Yorkers are a special blend. There is something for everyone here.
        And I will resist any specific political references, but I'm proud on that front lately, too.

          The National Parks of California as well as the USA. Also, the way we help people all over the world when a disaster strikes. Have you noticed that?

                I now live in Florida, but Maine will always be home...it's so beautiful, the people are proud of their work ethic and their individuality and generally care about their fellow citizens, though they won't say so out loud.

                  Agreed......I'd like to add that New York has some of the best shopping, and restaurants in the world. It's open 24 hrs a day, and has some of the least judgmental people that you will ever come across......As long as you're not hurting anyone, anything that you'd like to do is OK by me, no matter how off-beat. In fact, we'll barely even notice.

                  If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change.

                  BTW, I'm still keeping track of how many times you annoy me.

                    I could start out with some over 10,000 lakes. We have a full four seasons.
                    The Twin Cities have probably the 2nd or 3rd largest theater/art area.
                    I could go fishing on a beautiful lake with the sounds of loons in the background in the morning and watch Phantom in the evening.
                    Some of the most beautiful parks in the country.
                    Minnesota has the Boundary Waters Canoe Area. Nature at it's best.

                    And a real plus for us in Minnesota, we aren't North Dakota! It's a Mn. thing.

                      1) The simple way of life. There aren't many overtly aggressive, pretentious types here. People here work hard, play harder and tell it like it is. There's something very appealing about the laid back, yet adventurous, wild west ambiance here. I'm not sure there's a restaurant in the state that you can't still walk into wearing Levi's (your nice pair ) and cowboy boots.

                      2) The scenery. Rugged snow capped peaks, massive wilderness areas, pristine alpine lakes, abundant wildlife and clean air.

                          I live in a state of confusion, mostly.

                          I reside in Idaho -- sorry I thought my "post header" said that. I'll fix it.

                              It says that already.
