Well if you get this far I can show you around the
desert and mountains but you can't make me go
to the beach. LOL I did drive my sil down there
a few years ago. I doubt she has any idea how I
just don't like it there. She enjoyed it a lot though.
Next time her brother can do that.

I am one of those who just cannot bear living in a desert.
For one thing it is just murder on my sinuses!
I like water and trees and stuff.
Right now I am in between the great lakes and the Appalaichian
foothills, best of both! (G)

That's what I thought until I moved here. It is weird how
you learn to love it. Did you ever actually live in the desert
for any length of time?
I remember going to visit my fil up in Oregon years ago.
It was odd but I felt like all the trees were going to attack
me. There is something wonderful about wide open spaces.
My yard is really green and there is a pool. It is wonderful.
If I could grow citrus here I would really be happy.

Growing up in Texas I thought I knew dry. But 20 years in Phoenix
showed me every facet of the desert. I loved hiking with my DH out in
the Superstitions and South Mountain and other places around. But the
heat .... omg, I dreaded it and every year it seemed to be hotter and
last longer than the year before. My youngest son was born in August.
We really didn't have a winter that year. We hit 100 in my MIL's
backyard just after Easter that year. And it was still in the 90s on
Halloween. The kids both shed their costumes before we got down the
street. I love the desert. I hate living in a desert city. I'm happy
where I am now, four real seasons. And small -- I really like small.
Citrus trees are pretty cool. I do miss our pink grapefruit tree.
Sigh, you can't have everything. :P
