With all my various broken and repaired parts, I need dry. I understand that Seattle is a fantastic place to live but its just not for me. Portland, I've heard is also quite good but I have the same climate problems. So when I'm ready to leave NY, I think I'll head to Tucson. Some of those south Californian places whose names start with San or Santa sound pretty good too. 'Specially if they're on or near the ocean. I think I'd like to winter on Gilligan's Island. But without any whacky neighbours, restive volcanoes, typhoons, itinerant headhunters, enemy subs, or Mars landings gone awry. Maybe have The Sporting News delivered. Do a little gardening, do a little fishing. Almost sounds like retirement, doesn't it? cheers, Tom -- Nothing is safe from me. I'm really at: tkeats curlicue vcn dot bc dot ca |

And I'm not a pathological golfer, nor have I any other inducements or inclinations to outstay my welcome. ;-) Seems to me there are some direct airline flights between Vancouver and San Diego. Even red-eyes. But -- Las Vegas is cheaper to travel to (especially now.) Then, just Greyhound it from Las Vegas to S.D. Then rent a Hertz, drive to Santa Monica, find a non-sleazy motel, pay the guy up-front, and sleep in warmth through winter. Get somebody to drive the Hertz back for you -- preferably the person with whom's credit card you (he) rented it in the first place. cheers, Tom -- Nothing is safe from me.
