I had made a plan to relocate to Malibu, Californy, should the unthinkable happen,
if I had actually won a huge lotto. Well, that's not going to happen anyway, now, is it?
It's all up in smoke now (no Cheech and Chong pun intended, either).

Seriously what other place exists that closely matches the best place in the world to live ? ? ?
(I mean that won't burn to a crisp?)
- Don't chase the numbers you play.
- Play only numbers you've already played, plus however many random picks.
- But, ALWAYS the regular numbers you play. This will make you a winner, not a chaser.
  (so far, though, I've yet to win any significant lotto prize)
- Oh, but always know where your tickets are, as well as your ticket's deadline.

I was aiming for Laguna Beach but too many fires nearby. Malibu was my original choice but then wanted a busier area. I want to garden all year long. It is so cold on the east coast. Virginia Beach and Florida do not interest me.

There is a lot of Coastline on the West. I hope you find what you are looking for.

If you like fog than look at San Francisco or the Central Valley where I am.

There is the Central Coast of California.

I remember fog at night at the U.S. Naval Base in San Diego. I also remember fog at the Airport.

I guess you could find a bunch of stats on the National Weather Service site.

Good luck with that and I do hope you win a decent sized Jack Pot.

I think the best place in the world to live would be Gilligan's Island.

CDanaT,

Thank you, but no. In the thawed out season, it gets overwhelmed with flies, bugs, etc.
Otherwise, it's just too doggone cold. I don't mind some civilization. Also, most people
(idk, depends on area, too many doggone drunks).

Mr Groppo
- Don't chase the numbers you play.
- Play only numbers you've already played, plus however many random picks.
- But, ALWAYS the regular numbers you play. This will make you a winner, not a chaser.
  (so far, though, I've yet to win any significant lotto prize)
- Oh, but always know where your tickets are, as well as your ticket's deadline.

Artist77,

The thing about San Diego is really only what I got from some service rep. for something.
I happened to be speaking with, the other day. How we got on the subject of Californy,
I don't know, but she said "Carson, Nevada".

Immediately, I replied "You'd leave Californy, for Nevada?".
She said only one word, and I understood, and agreed. That word was "traffic".

RCBuckeye,

I used to drive the big truck. But when dispatched to Texas, I've only visited:

Laredo: (too doggone hot/humid);
Houston: - nothing but car dealerships;
Dallas/Ft. Worth: too busy & too much traffic;
Amarillo: The cows must outnumber people 10,000 : 1. We could have a massive fuel shortage, leaving motorists stranded on the side of the road, some day, but a beef shortage? NEVER.

Seriously though, I've never been to Brewester County, but its location seems good. I like the scene posted on Google Maps, when I researched it, but again. .. . the temps.?

Anyway, the way things are going in this world, if I do ever win a huge prize, I may have to resort to what Dr. No did, in the first 007 movie: Have an entirely underground-built facility.

Groppo, There is an Underground home here in Fresno, CA. Stays about the same temperature all year long. It is a tourist site so come and visit.
