    Jock, I have wrestled with 'the question' for many years. I have come to the conclusion that there is no one best place.

    Spend 2 months in Alaska fishing cold fresh water, and one gets the crave for a tarpon in warm shallow salt. Shoot perdiz in Uruguay, then yearn for harder shots on bobwhites (and hot fresh biscuits, grits, and fried quail) in Georgia.

    The yearn for travel, wandering, and visiting lets one sample these delights. There is no substitute.

    When God created Eden, he called it Argyll.

    I didn't know Florida used to be called Argyll!

    As long as it's warm, hot, humid, and not cold, I don't mind it.
    But, nothing compares to right here at home.

    And then someone opened the window & let the midges in

    It's where I chose to make my home, and I wouldn't be anywhere else, but kilted evenings May-July are best spent in a windy spot

    I agree. There are so many wonderful places in the world. I like where I am the best, though, here in the Pacific Southwest, and will never move away. Also, almost all my family lives nearby, which makes it even better.
