You IS one of the choices. You named many favorite visits.

Yes, A warning to all DO NOT MOVE HERE! change your plans before it's to late! Goes back to planning next weekend. Will it be; snow, beach, desert or redwood forest in a day's drive? Do I want; Chinese,Japanese, Thai, Filipino, Vietnamese,Indian, Persian, Kurdish, Moroccan,  Ethiopian, French,Italian,German, Russian or English pub fare, Mexican, Jamaican or Brazilian, Cajun, Tenessee bbq, Chicago pizza, Kosher deli ?

Roller blading on the Venice boardwalk with microkini clad girls representing all he above ethnicities? Fencing practice or long range rifle competition? fly fishing?

Two neighborhood kids are outside, texting each other six feet apart about how BORED they are.

Hmm...tough choices...

Of course, I get to choose field documenting of wild rattlesnake and lizard species, tracking endemic and endangered wildlife, flying and hunting with falcons and hawks, volunteering at the Wildlife Rehabilitation Center with the Golden Eagles and Great Horned Owls, hiking through the Inyo National Forest, climbing Mt. Whitney, wildflowers in Death Valley, swimming in a high elevation lake, fly fishing for wild Volcano Creek Golden Trout, photographing the feet of the giants in the footsteps of Ansel Adams, alpine rock climbing, mountaineering, sport climbing in the Owen's Gorge, bouldering in any of about 12 different locations, cruising my motorcycle through the twisty canyons, or following my RC rock crawler up and down the foothills and creeks, horseback riding through the desert and up into the backcountry lakes, canoeing on Sabrina, or just chilling out on the front porch with a cold brew in one hand and good friends on the side...And I only have to deal with a population of about 3,800 people.

Yea...I have fewer food choices, but...I'll take what I got...

And that, my friends, is why we humans live, love, and adapt to where we live.
