Even the people are cool.
Monticello, Ferndale, Albany, Watertown, Saugerties, New Paltz, Newburgh, Plattsburgh, Saranac, Oswego and I'm sure I forgot some.
(And the women are niiiiiice.)
You could abandon me anywhere up there and I doubt I would struggle for a moment, let alone try to return to godforsaken Hunterdon County/NJ.
People are simple, they live well and don't struggle or worry as much. (or so it seems) (Dane and Lynard, you follow me now? Simple does not mean "simpleton".)
I could be a billionaire and chances are, I'd be doing the same things, in a different area but nothing would be different otherwise.
You don't need a mansion with 40 rooms or 10 cars or even an Olympic sized pool in your house. You need to be stable, well-fed and happy.
And even billionaires sometimes fail in that respect.
No, give me a small place near the woods with a lot of wilderness around and nice people that aren't pretentious or scumbags and I'll call it home.
It's only natural if you are a regular fellow.
(Oh and I'd like to have a dirt bike and a snowmobile if possible, the older ones are better because you can repair them yourself.)
