Ok now, I am an Archaeoligist and enjoy the desert but I live up in the mountains of Colorado.- not my favorite state, but enjoy the snow that pours in a lot! Alaska is bueatiful and icy. California is a state that you think is the best until you see the prices of gas, houses, and most importantly, PROPERTY. But as horrible as that sounds, it is a pretty nice state. Enjoy Arizona and DEFINETLY NEW MEXICO. But I do not believe I like New York. It is a great City-state kinda state until you see the comotion on the roads!, but of course that is why I am not a city kind of guy... which brings me to my point that I would not do good living in the Northeast but the West is fine! I also like pizza... yup!
