What stops you from moving to another state ??
I live in the Mitten, have all my life!! We have everything here, jobs, 4 seasons, cars and car culture galore, I don't know where I would move if I could!! I'm not one to sit on a beach doing nothing, so that's no draw for me, big shops with lifts would suit me just fine!! Plus, I have a lot of mittens to keep me warm, and a handy map right with me when I need it, I'd say I'm good!!
