I'm now at Denver International Airport waiting for my missing bag, because some illiterate Maine yokel probably put it on the wrong flight.

On the subject of desolate drives, I'll weigh in.
I'm in the minority, but I don't mind the big flat vistas in Kansas and Wyoming and eastern Colorado. I like seeing the horizon and I like the vastness of it. It's been a while since I've crossed Illinois/Indiana/Ohio, but I remember it being less interesting than the plains. I couldn't see the horizon, but what I was seeing wasn't overly interesting. I drove from Boston to Caribou on this Maine debacle. That's a long way. I took the interstate up, and then took the coastal highway for part of the way back. The coastal highway was an annoyance because it was slower and you couldn't see the coast other than a few places. The highway actually wasn't bad because it had some variation in terrain and the trees were different than I usually see. But the speed traps ruined it. Honestly, the worst drives I've done have been in Georgia. It's perfectly flat and all you can see are trees on either side, and they close in on you. The trees there didn't look natural for some reason. It almost seemed like someone planted the trees just to block the views. Those drives have been pretty monotonous.

Maine is a cheap shot thug. We don't want Maine on our team. Maine is the Broncos of states. That's why their site is called the Orange Maine.

And even if they are worse, I'm hoping the dry summers make up for it. Because where I'm at now the weather pretty much sucks year around. We get some nice days here and there, but never for an extended amount of time and we don't know far enough ahead of time to be able to plan for them. It's a constant game of Russian Roulette. |

Fort Collins, CO is nice but I suppose Cheyenne is close enough and the cost of living is much cheaper than Fort Collins. |

That's why we're looking up that way. Anywhere in Colorado is insane. Housing is a little higher in Cheyenne than it is here, but our property taxes would be 50% of what we're paying here. And no state income tax. And way less people.

Yeah, I would think that Cheyenne's climate is similar to that of Fort Collins, which is quite tolerable. I also hear a lot about the wind in Wyoming, but I haven't been outside there enough to have any knowledge of it. I kind of like Cheyenne as a town. It's a bit small, but I think I could live there. Same with Laramie, and Laramie has the advantage of being a college town.

I drove through Maine a couple of years ago. I kind of enjoyed the lobster roll I had. And I didn't have any problem speeding across the state although now that Rain Man explains the history, it's probably because I had Missouri plates and the people up there are grateful we got them in the Union.

Maybe they pile the lobster higher on lobster rolls they make for people who pull up in Missouri vehicles too.

I bet that's it. I had Illinois plates, and Maine-ards probably don't know where that is.
