Part of me would love to settle near the beach either in the white sands in Florida, or somewhere near Dan Diego. The rest of me has fallen in love with the High Desert here in Southern California (Joshua Tree offers SUCH breathtaking views, if you have never visited, you owe it to yourself. Places like that, they refresh your faith in the world at large) A nice bed and breakfast, tucked away in the hills up there would be a perfect place to use as a home base for day-hikes, trail rides, photography. And that doesn't even begin to touch on the nights out there. There are so many stars!

I work at the doggy day care, and one of the girls that worked with me there got out of school for vet tech, and it lasted a month before she came back to the day care...

Oh yes I know what u mean I liked the chickens to roam free but then they would eat the blueberries and lay eggs in hard to find places did you ever see the far side cartoon of the 'boneless chicken ranch'. no I haven't, I guess that is something I will have to look into - thnx the fresh eggs were soooo worth it and they really do taste different from in the store...but the chickens are an unruly lot

I had never been farther east then Pennsylvania (My folks say I've been to Ohio, but I don't think it counts if I was too young to remember it). You should definitely add the American Deserts to your bucket list, but remember, the Low Desert and the High Desert are two very different places, be sure to add both to your list.
