Me too !!
My dream is to eventually live somewhere where it is warm without high humidity. And sweeping, wide open views.
I'm not a big fan of dense forest or feeling closed in.
I'll take somewhat barren mountains over that !! As long as I get the wide open spaces, big blue sky, and warm dry weather :) Of course some green would be nice, too, but no dark forests or no views.
Well, one can dream ;)

From what you describe with wide open spaces, my first thought was Montana or Wyoming or something like that, but the winters there are probably harsh.
I don’t mind some forest, but not super dense. I’m also not a fan of high humidity, although I’d take it right now since I’ve been keeping my humidity up and steady, but it’s been a constant battle.
If you know where this utopia that you speak of exists, don’t keep it a secret. Please share. Lol

I haven't really figured that out just yet !! But probably somewhere out west ;) I might have to have a summer home and a winter home. There are gorgeous places that just get to cold in winter...
I just love open spaces. There can be mountains, but not densely forested. I lived in El Paso for a short time. The city is nothing to write home about, that is for sure, but when you got up into those mountains and looked all around, wow. So much blue sky, it was almost overwhelming.
A drier climate will make it more difficult to keep the humidity up for the animals, but it can be done. I don't even mind the humidity here most of the year, but the summers are miserable.

No way! I was stationed at Ft. Bliss in El Paso when I was in the Marine Corps. I was an instructor at the Marine Corps Stinger Missile School. I got my red tails when I was out there.
Yes, the city was nothing special. I agree about that. Did you ever get out to Elephant Butte? It’s a state park/ reservoir near Truth or Consequences, New Mexico. Always loved the name of that town. Lol [emoji23]
Lots of beautiful places around the country that I’d like to explore (some only at certain times of the year)... One day... when I hit the lottery and am not working around the clock. [emoji16]

I probably did go to that park !
I used to go a lot to that big rock formation, forgot the name. But a lot of people went rock climbing there, or hiking. There were lots of old Indian drawings up in there. I could spend all day exploring!
I kind of liked the landscape. It was more of a barren one, but had its own Beauty, that is for sure !!

From what you’re describing you probably hiked around Mammoth Rock and Aztec Cave. They were on a State Park that I can’t think of the name right now. I think I went up there a few times. I remember getting a ton of those huge cactus spikes or thorns in my legs the first time and deciding to wear long pants from there on out.
El Paso was also the first place I ever saw a drive-thru liquor store.
