Ha ha ha ha, not really brother Ash. That's a big reason why we chose to remain out in the rain forest.

In '05, a couple years into her cancer when I was still 18 wheel mobile, I took her on a tour of the US because she wanted to see what's out there in our wonderful land. She had never been out of the PNW except for a road trip to NE, and wondered if it was any "better" out "there".
The humidity of the SE was a hard no. The density of the NE was another hard no. The heat of the SW is a hard no too. The middle has facets of all those other places, so a soft no, but no nevertheless. So we stayed here. Like the saying goes, someone has to do it.
