AUSTIN!

I would say subscribe to the community threads and hang out with the BFP people that are here there. (that makes sense if you read it fast...I think.)

But Austin throws regular parties. We are a good group and we live all over so you can whine about those of us who are too far south or those of them who are too far north.

Truly, Austin is a good fit if you are weird and like to celebrate your weirdness.

But it is hot. Ungodly this summer. But we don't get too much cold which is one of the reasons I left Denver.

Are you a sports fan? We've got that.
Music fan? We've got that too.
Food lover? OMGay do we have that.

And, if you can, visit each one.

But really, why waste all that time? Move to Austin. It's where the cool kids go.

Unless you are a cool kid who lives somewhere else. (CYA and running now)

Having lived 35miles from Boston for almost 3 years, I can tell you I HATED the winters there!! It would snow, that would freeze, then it would snow on top of the iced snow and then do it all over again! And having to move your car so plowing could get done was a real pain in the butt too!

And don't get me started on how RUDE the drivers are in Boston! They will cut you off then flip you off like you did something wrong. It's a whole different style of driving up there. You have to learn to jump out in the smallest of spaces or you'll end up sitting and sitting waiting to get out, then people are honking at you. I certainly learned a new way to drive up there!

BUT! The best thing about Boston that I love is the Boston Red Sox! I got to see them twice at Fenway Park (pronounced pock) and I've been a fan ever since.

I'm partial to Colorado myself. The fishing hunting and outdoor sports are unmatched. I like snow, yes even feet of it. Living in the great NNE we get our fair share.
There is community to be found in Colorado, as well as hot springs and a lively college community. Oh and one can get an ostrich burger without having to import it.
