What do you love?

I love Arcade, NY. It is the perfect size, though there are many suburban-type houses replacing many farms, which means more traffic; but there are stores, etc.
The farm that we rent is paradise in my eyes. Our driveway puts the house about half a mile away from the road, which is a usually-nicely plowed state road. We can shoot, hike, ATV ride, and the like, right at home. I honestly have to pinch myself often when roaming around the woods, or walking down the driveway, just to make sure this is not a dream! Best of all, we can keep our horses right at home; I can look out the bedroom window and see them outside, and the barn is a short walk across some grass. These are all home pics :)
Side note: Fishmommy; your house and its view must be AWE inspiring! My kinda place!

I knew I could count on you for some delicious pics, Gin! :blowkiss:

I hate where I live now.

I love being in the middle of nowhere, With trees as far as the eye's can see. Also love hiking, horseback riding, competeing in dog shows and horse shows. Reading, being lazy and antique shopping. A dip in a river and sleeping outdoors on a sandbar listening to the water rush by after a day of canoeing.:D :D :D

I cant wait....I have 3 years til the kids are out of high school and we will be living on a farm much like that. We actually started looking for homes and we found some great ones out in the middle of NOWHERE!!!!!!!:) :)

I love New Orleans! It is diverse, always something to do, and the people here are great.

i loooove where we live. from our driveway to the beach is 7 minutes! a traffic jam is when we have more than 3 vehicles on the road at once (that includes bicycles) :P

mountains can be seen in almost every direction. our spring starts in feb and our winter begins in november. we get a few days of snow a year... and lots of sunshine.

it's 45 minutes to the closest ski resort.
90 minutes to the ocean.
lots of nature walks, wildlife galore and bird sanctuaries.

people are spiritually open... health food stores exist even in small towns like mine AND homes are still affordable (in an out of control highly expensive province).

:D british columbia, canada ROCKS!!!

I love Texas for several reasons... If you drive 3-4 hrs. in any direction you can hit Ocean, mountains, (OK... big hills) What I call scrub land; deer country...no grass/rocks/caucus... See amazing wild flowers.. We have great camping (Hitting Lake Travis next weekend)... And the weather always keeps you guessing! Great fishing, and the most beautiful sun sets!

In general... Texans are slow going and EZ people... most of them! :P

The only negative here is, we don't own this place and our LL will never sell. On the plus side, we plan on buying something similar in the next few years after the wedding. Sounds like you've got the right idea!
