No, not whether it exists or not, but rather where I live is about as close to it as you can get and still be alive. Here it is, the first part of May, and we are having warm temps, cool breezes, cool nights and almost every day it's clear blue skies without a cloud in site. Where is this? Tombstone, AZ. Not only do we have probably the best weather around (read warm but little humidity) where else can you dress up in 1880's style clothing, wear a 6 gun on your hip, walk around town and no one things anything about it. Talk about living your second childhood. I'd not live anyplace else at this point of my life.

I would like to visit Arizona sometime. As much as I love New England, I can't stand the cold and snow anymore.

That's one of the big reasons we moved here. My arthritis and other joint issues are much better out here. I cut my pain med usage in half, which is a good thing. But, at least in Southern AZ you really need to like the desert and very dry weather. One thing that continues to amaze me, though, is the large number of rose bushes, of all things, that we have here. We also have the worlds largest rose bush, so big, it's enclosed in a wall and used as a tourist attraction and is part of a Spring celebration and parade!

Glad to hear you're enjoying yourself out there Greg! I don't think I could flee the Pacific NW; too used to all of the green

Ya know, Giz, I thought that too, but, life does force changes and when in Michigan I hardly went anyplace as it was too painful. I still have pain, but this warm, dry air has done wonders in relieving the worst of it, as long as I behave and don't try to do the things I used to be able to do, like work under the motor home trying to get it level. I'm still paying for that idiotic move and that was on Sunday I did that. Spent most of Monday on the couch just trying to find a comfortable way to lay... LOL... Today is better, but still have some left over pain.
