NHRA Tech Dept to Indy

I have been retired for 10 years now and we have traveled the country racing and just seeing the country. There are positives and negatives about everywhere we have been.
As posted above there are good things and bad things about everywhere you go in the country. You just have to choose what works best for you.
I had a uncle who lived just outside Grants Pass Oregon in the 1960's along I believe the Rouge River. His place was upstream from the river that ran through Grants Pass. I was in high school at the time of my first visit to him there and the salmon were running up the river. The river was just full of fish coming to the top of the water. I had never seen anything like it and I understand now it is nothing like that. It was a beautiful place in the 1960's.
Being retired I think a state with no state income tax, a decent climate, and a safe environment is the most important place for me. I can travel from there to the races or whatever and that is what I like most about where we live right now, but I can live and be happy most anywhere.
My 2 Cents
