Where would you go?
Where would you go? I used to spend my time traveling all over the US because of my job. I really miss that job. The job itself was lots of hard work but was fun. I pretty much controlled the show and oftentimes was even able to complete projects faster than the actual deadlines. In my travels, there were many places I frequented and of course some of them became favorites of mine. The Ft Lauderdale / Miami area was one place I spent the longest period of time. I worked up and down the eastern side of Florida and fell in Love with Jacksonville, Miami, Ft Lauderdale, Plantation, West Palm and the entire surrounding area. I go tot make friends too that I kept for a long time that unfortunately I've lost touch with but would love to find them again. Raleigh, NC and it's surrounding area was another favorite place to be. We had offices there and I would go there for training from time to time. I'm very biased to the woodlands that make up that area of the US. My office home base was in Alpharetta, GA, just north of Atlanta. I still have a few friends there and would go there in a heartbeat. San Diego is a place I only visited a few times but again would gladly live there even if they do have earthquakes. New Jersey and New York also have a tremendous fondness in my heart as I spent 7 years living up there and still hold ties to keep me there in spirit. Even this place has brought my heart back to NJ thanks to a couple of very special people I've met through the blogs. I hope one day to make that connection a reality! My soul is biased to our countries Mountains and forest lands and our beaches also have great pull to them as well. I can't remember anymore but I think I've been to at least 37 of our states and find something in each one of them I love. I'm proud to be an American and live in a place where we have the freedoms to travel as we want. Of all the places I've traveled, if I could go to a place right this moment, I think it would have to be Tennessee. My heart has always been drawn to TN for some reason. It's where we took our honeymoon. It's a place I'd love to retire too. It's really a place I'd love to raise my in. I'm just sorry I'm not there now. There are many things to attract someone to TN but I can't put my finger on any ONE thing that stands out as my reasoning I feel I belong there. Perhaps one day good fortune will come my way and the opportunity will present itself to carry my family to the place my heart has always wanted to be. Where would you choose to be if the opportunity made itself known to you? |

Good post! VA is my home, and if I wasn't here, I would probably be up in the Westchester County area of NY. I went to college up there. Have friends and family up there in the tri-state area.

I've been to some of those places you are talking about in California. They are very beautiful. Some of the same type of places are also found in NY State. I love traveling. I've always found something I loved about every place. except for Az. That place was just too hot when I was there. Of course I'd find something to love there too b my only trips were working trips and it was all work and no play. At midnight, it was 112 degrees. That's just too dang hot for me.

When I was dating my now wife, I had the opportunity to work in Hawaii for a period of time but I chose not too as i would not have seen my wife for several months at a time. I was too much in heat to want to stay that long away form her.

I'd have to vote for getting back to Italy. Spend a way too short year and a half there and would really like to return.
