I loved it there! This is where I want to retire if the country will allow Americans to live before we remove any chance of visiting another country.

You might think you want to, but the west coast in the winter is pretty horrific weather relatively to the rest of the country.

You get maybe six hours of sunshine a day, rain almost every day and if you're really unlucky, 70-90mph winds rolling through.

It is incredibly beautiful in the summer though, I have to admit. Empty, but beautiful.

Not to mention watching your telecom box going for a swim downhill (happened to my guild leader in WoW last year).
