Is there a better state out there?

As you can see by the illustrious map drawn by Mr. Canuck, we have a very clear line drawn between the cool half and the not cool half up here in Canada. Apparently Johnny has taken it to the county level south of the border. :rotflmao:

Wyatt (and anyone else who cares), I can't wait to get out of PA most days. I hate the winters, the road salt, the humidity (though I'd tolerate it for better year-round weather), the growth, and all the NJ tourists. :roll:
However, if you head west about an hour and putter around the region with towns like "Burnt Cabins" and "Metal" (really) you will find the unspoiled PA that is like Alaska without the moose and permafrost. Sorta. :wink: I was just there this week and can't believe how much pretty country lies between Carlisle and Pittsburgh.
Same, too, south into Maryland west of Cumberland.
That said, send me to the south. NC/TN/KY I think is all about me. Warmer winters, fewer potholes, still have some mountains and I can drive my old stuff year round without watching it evaporate from road salt.
I like the weather out in NV/AZ but it's just too sparse for me. I kind of like trees. :)
Still have a lot more travelling to do to find that 'perfect spot' to hopefully retire to someday.
Stop The Longbed Hate! :)

California has some beautiful territory also the problem is it is getting harder and harder to find. Everything has a house on it now. However if you drive up highway fifty out of Sacramento heading into south lake tahoe. Some georgous territory. ALso East side of California on the other side of Donner Pass down I 395 I love it. Still more or less unspoiled. I remember when Tahoe was not such a tourist trap. It is still beautiful but now its the trendy place to be. I have mountainbikes and back packed a lot of the areas there. Pete I hear you on the foreclosure rate. MSN had a list of the 10 worst Real Estate Markets in the country. 6 of them where in California and the other 4 were in Florida. Yeah, Good times
Cheers,

My65 (Jason) where you live (just like where Jarrod lives) it also helps to have NASCAR training for the Freeway 500 every morning and night too.
It's a race.. Will hell freeze over or will JC finish his truck first. Stay tuned..

Most people drive by feel here anyway. In Denial, the roads are always clear, the highway cops only give tickets to those that are too slow, and women are scantilly clad :twisted:

I think I've been to a few of those as well! If memory serves me correctly, they are all fairly close together. I had some pics from Emergency, but they were blurry from going fast, the ones from Paranoia, I burned so there would be no evidence, and the ones from Intoxication... well let's just say what's on those I wouldn't be allowed in 48 of your 50 states and most of Canada also...

I don't live in the state of denial, I live in the state of confusion. Get it right. :P
