North and West Posted January 21, 2022 Share Posted January 21, 2022 I think it would be a really nice place to get back to nature and find some peace and solace far away from all the noise and commotion- and still be able to drive to all the noise and commotion when that was desired. Can't think of many places like that.Also: https://www.wsj.com/articles/second-homes-are-fueling-a-rebirth-in-the-poconos-11642694375. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was gonna say... this region is like the Mecca of isolation a short drive from civilization. There are countless towns in Litchfield, Ulster, Pike, etc. where you can own a house miles from your neighbor, be unable to find a cell signal, and not have your road plowed until three days after it snows, while still being 90 minutes from the financial capital of the world. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Volcanic Winter Posted January 21, 2022 Share Posted January 21, 2022 I’m very inclined to move away from the coast. The difficult thing is my work (in Hillside, Union Co). Commuting from N / NW NJ wouldn’t be bad, but I really want out of this state. Spent all my life here and there’s too much beauty in the NE region to be stuck in a state with a ludicrous population density. Traffic makes me mad. If I can get my wife onboard I’d love to move to New Hampshire or Maine. Half my wife’s family is French Canadian and there may be some opportunity for a more drastic move, but of course even that is a vastly bigger deal / commitment. Of course if I pursued my passion for geology / volcanology there’d be an opportunity to spend time living in Iceland, which for us is one of the most beautiful places on earth. Been there four times now (in winter) and planning to go back soon. My wife surprisingly on board with that, but once again an endless escalation of commitments and an even more drastic change. Not always easy. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snowman19 Posted January 21, 2022 Share Posted January 21, 2022 Here comes wxtwitter proclaiming that “it’s only going to be warm in the east at 500mb in February. I’m surprised the “it’s only going to be warm aloft” tweets started so early, I figured it would have waited until next week. JB trained them well lol 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol I used to be a Giants fan. I got fed up with how they treated Eli and how they mismanaged their players and the drafting of a Duke QB. They are way behind the times and they need new ownership not just a new GM. Their former GM should have been fired and kicked out on his ass in the middle of the season and not allowed to "retire" or whatever he did. I don't like the Bills or even the city of Buffalo (it's full of corruption). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good evening Nibor. Both states deserve better. Why not remove the state/city identifier and refer to them as the Coastal Plain Giants/Jets. Our winters expectations/results and their performances would be in tandem. As always …. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
