New Mexico vs. Florida

Canada rocks, though. I've been on both ends and loved it. I guess I just want to be anywhere but here. This has been the only place I couldn't tolerate.

I've through the Toronto airport (nice airport) and to Regina (rhymes with Vagina, no joke!)

Strange thread to get over 100 posts, but pretty cool.

EVERYWHERE in Canada is awesome. I have been to most of it [other than the Yukon, NWT, Nunavut, etc]. Their pigs are as bad as American pigs, otherwise I prefer Canada to almost anywhere in the states.

I didnt care much at all for French Canada myself.

Loved the part I went through when I went out to Alaska however.

Really New Mexico is a very nice state. We have pine forest in the Jemez Mountains with camping and fishing. We have lakes for boating and water skiing .
The mountains have enough snow most winters to provide some really good skiing and snow boarding. The price of gas right now is a little less than most places in the country. Housing is somewhat cheaper than most places, much less than Florida. Lots of sunshine but low humidity and the temperatures are rarely over 100 in the summer and the winters are rarely so cold that a light jacket isn't enough. Tornados are extremely rare and hurricanes are non-existent. Floods don't happen very often and are never anything like what Texas had or the mid west did this past spring. Just avoid the drunk drivers and un-employment and its pretty cool here. This has been a better than average year for concert rolling through town too. Florida makes some nice postcards but the humidity alone would keep me from ever wanting to live there. I like crispy potato chips, in Florida you'll only get them for about five minutes after the seal on the bag is broken. It's all about the chips folks, all about the chips.

I've so owned this thread.
