The girls wandering around there are probably of age now.

Epstein's island hasn't been capsized by the Clintons yet?

April-October here. November-March in Scottsdale.

Maybe Jackson WY.

Someplace with fewer people. It's getting a little crowded around here.

If money were no object I'd buy the house next to cals and let Taylor live there rent free for shits and giggles. 

As far as my remaining working years there's plenty of nice places in CA that I like location wise, have great views and great weather like La Jolla but ultimately I'd want to get away from the rat race at least part of the year so split time in two locations like Adam.  The second location would be on or near a lake, river or bay and have far fewer people than we have in CA.  My wife's great grandfather came here from Italy and because they can trace their lineage she was able to get dual citizenship.  I love the idea of retiring to somewhere in Italy in wine country where it's laid back and we can refurbish an old house or farm on some small vineyard.

Jackson is crowded and extremely expensive. 

There is a lack of buildable land so 1000 sqft shacks in town are like 2 million dollars.  The road to the resort is filled with lower income housing since the people who work in the service industry and resorts can't afford to live there.  Some move to Alpine, WY to the south or Victor or Driggs in Idaho to the west (but this is over the pass, so in winter it can be closed periodically).  North and east aren't usable for growth become of National Parks and National Forests. 

It's also filled with lefties and Hollywood types, FYI.

Yes I was thinking something along these lines:

That is, if money is no object.

Besides my wife loves it here so that would be a problem.

I suppose if money is no object, then yes, that would be nice.

 France is also a lovely country but the people aren't so friendly, especially if you don't speak French

But that's the best part. Those people are probably all talking crap on me whenever I go there.... but because I don't speak French, I have no idea they are, so it doesn't bother me!

 

I just say "merci" and wave

If it helps, this will be my swearing in ceremony.

 

Is that the guy that did the Jan 6 riots?

Singapore, Scandinavia (Denmark or Norway), or the British countryside.

If confined to the US, probably somewhere in the Rockies (Wyoming, Colorado, etc)
