Discovering the Magic of My Home Town

[wolram]

About the place you live ?

 

[arildno]

The trees have green leaves.

The trees have green leaves.

That sounds a fun place to live.

 

[arildno]

Also, the sky is usually blue and the coffee good (at least the one I don't have to make myself)

Everything. The trees with green leaves, all of the critters, the annual return of our creek... It's paradise. We LOVE it!1111

Is that a smog haze?

 

[Tsu]

Even the lack of bedspace?

Yeah. Even that. After 20+ years, I'm pretty used to it. I hardly EVER fall off anymore!

Yeah. Even that. After 20+ years, I'm pretty used to it. I hardly EVER fall off anymore!

I just remembered:
Beware the serpent in paradise, though..

Cheap beer, lovely rocky Peak District on doorstep, nice little green big city nearby. Lots of hills. Friendly people who will say 'thanks' if you hold a door open for them, or smile if you let them out of a junction.

Oh no wait, that's not where I live. That's where I used to live. Rats.

Are you acclimatized yet Brewey? most people that move there have a tummy
bug for the first week or so, but by the third week are able to check out the
area.

Is that a smog haze?

Its smoke coming from indonesia (cause by peat and forest fires).

That must be awful, i hope it soon clears up.

 

[Jimmy Snyder]

It's the land of the free.

 

[wolram]

Jimmysnyder, i meant your local area, not country, but what the hey, what is good
about it?

Weather is great, skies are usually clear, always clean, the rolling hills, pastures, vineyards, and all are gorgeous, and it's fairly quiet and organized. There doesn't seem to be any crime going on. Despite the dairy farms, it doesn't smell like manure all the time (like Riverside County and the central valley). The locals are very nice.

On the down side, there isn't a damn thing to do unless you drive down to San Francisco. Even Santa Rosa doesn't seem to have a whole lot going on.

The good. Most of the bad people have killed each other off.
My dog is still bigger then most of the rats.
People are re-investing into the city, new homes are going up all over, and
older homes are being fixed.
Great medical care, even for the poor.
My neighborhood is full of lush green lawns and gardens. Parks with majestic trees.
The great lakes are beautiful in every season.

The bad. Still too much violence.
To few city services
To many poor
One stupid Mayor
Poor quality of public education

The local area is free too.

 

[Smurf]

It's not anywhere else.
