If we could have the same house in CA that we have here in MI, I'd move there tomorrow! I lived in So. Calif for 10 years & they were probably the best 10 years of my life. I felt like I lived in Paradise (well, except for the traffic!) The mountains, the ocean, the rolling hills, the excitement...always something to do....Boy do I ever miss living there!
Vegas is just too brown & too hot for me. I'd die there. Florida has too many bugs & is too humid. Never been to Texas.
