Well I guess we disagree on places to visit. I love the city, though rarely have driven down there for 15 years, always take the train. About the same time I moved to AZ, my youngest moved to the city-so now he picks me up and drives me. Door-to-door, gotta love it. Once in his place, we walk or jump on the el. With the last move their apt is only about 10 min on el to Bean. The lake is about 3 miles east of his abode, not a bad walk. Lots of restaurants in the neighborhood, though I miss being able to walk to Smoque!

Then again, I think Madison is beautiful and would love to live there. That my politics would be outside the norm there would only make things more interesting.

It's going on 4 years of rather rural living, my inner suburban self is coming out. Looking to work in Phoenix suburbs.
