If you are in to water sports my state is the one to visit, with almost 4000ks of coastline of clean translucent waters. of various colours of blues and greens, it is a mecca for swimmers, divers, surfers, and of course fishermen after the big fish which i assure you there are, or you might like to go in a shark cage off of our west coast to look at the Great White straight in the eye, all 6 metres of him, Steven Spielberg did his underwater scenes for Jaws in this area, the other liquid spot is the renown wine country of some of the world best wines - The Barossa Valley, the Coonawarra region and the Clare district or maybe The Southern Vales, or you may wish to go and look for Opal at Coober Pedy seeing outback life on the way. ----- South Australia the Wine State, the only state to have free settlers rather than convicts.

My town of about 60k people is 40 miles south of san Francisco, 20 miles to San Jose, 1/2 hour to the Pacific ocean beaches, our crime rate is almost ~0~ and the weather is beautiful almost year round.

(competition) We have street festivals all summer on weekends and always music in the park - It is beautiful! I have lived here for 28 years... But now I want to leave and go back to my birthplace in Ohio where there's nothing to see, bad weather and high crime.

I've lived in tiny tons, medium size towns, cities that were more like big towns, and cities. They each have had their pluses and minuses. Right now I am here for a variety of reasons- but I do have a wanderlust to try a new place out! Until then I will enjoy the close proximity to 2 cities and the beach, and The Chesapeake Bay!!!!
