    Demi and Ashton bought a town in Idaho

    Small ski resort, I think it was. But Bruce dumped millions into Hailey, and thus down the drain. The Mint's in Hailey, Throbber, not Ketchum. But you ain't no Sun Valley Superiority Guy until you've gotten drunk at Galena and driven home in a whiteout.

    Not sure I'd leave the PNW just to escape Seattle, but Palm Springs or the Carmel Valley would be nice. Santa Fe also.

    I have thought about Spokane actually, which is hilarious because 1) I was born there and 2) arrogant teenager DDJ swore never to return to Eastern WA.
    I like Spokane. But I think about Bellingham. You've still got the water and you can go either North or South for big city events when you want to.
    Bellingham is nutty expensive for what it offers, and politically following Seattle, but without the economic base. Hard pass.

    Ugh. Cross that one off the list then.

    I prefer the aura of Hemingway's splattered brains that still hangs over Ketchum. Especially while drinking at the Casino.

    And Mariel is hot as fuck in person. What a beauty. The cameras don't do her justice.

    There’s a place across the dirt road from me that’s for sale. i think the seller is negotiable on leaving the chain link fencing. Hit me up for details.

    Bellingham is about half the price as Seattle but about twice as liberal (yes it's possible). Gorgeous place to be with access to the best mountain in WA that doesn't get crowds.

    But unless you're a burnout or retired, your options are limited.

    If you had to relocate (time, money, job not being a problem), where would you go?

    Vienna

    Sacramento because we're like an hour away from a bunch of places you actually want to be.

    It's like living in purgatory with high upside.

    That would be Salem as well. But don’t move here. It’s hell bent on becoming Portland.
