Where would you rather live?

I may have asked this before, but I don't remember and can't find it. Still, I'm curious so I will ask again.

Where would you rather live? Where you currently do, or Flagstaff? If neither, where is that?

I live in Flag, yet after todays weather, the high rent I pay, the low wage job I just left today, the really irritating train, and many other things, I would much rather head to warmer and drier towns. I like the middle elevations of 3000' to 5000', especially since the 115 of Phoenix is not a sane temperature to me, and neither are -15 and -8 degrees (last years and this years low temps in Flag).
Still, I'm returning to school for a second BS degree, so I'm stuck here for 3 more years.

How about you?

yeah, its called Capitalism and it is necessary for every developing country. Even if mexico only got to the stage New Zealand enjoys, they'd be doing great (and wouldnt need to come here ;) )
I disagree with the notion that Capitalism is necessary for a nation to become "developed"...but that's another conversation, entirely ;)

Its true. Down the road that leads to Egg Mountain and the Grizzly Bear preserve, there are at least three silos that I recall from my time out there. There's likely more out in the area too.

having said that, Choteau is beautiful and a generally nice little town. I haven't been up there in 10 years though, so I don't really know what its like any more. Maybe those silos have been decommissioned by now.

London is a great town, and the UK in general has plenty of good hiking. However, it's terribly expensive.
