WHERE are the TREES!!! (home, place, weather)

[Mezter]

I would suggest taking a trip to Grand Junction,Colorado. It has many trees,Colorado River,And it has a metro population of just a bit under 200k,Mountains, 4 seasons with Snow & alot of sun. With what you just described, GJ has the perfect atmospher for you

Heh! Ironic - I relate to the OP in their preferences, am originally from Grand Junction, and often describe it as an environ I particularly DON'T like. The trees were all planted, except perhaps for a few junipers (as another poster said, yuck ). Drive south on HWY 50 to see why the natural landscape is not what the OP is looking for . Here's a shot that should be familiar to you if you're from the area:


All that said, I do agree it's a great area in other respects - sun, 4 seasons, outdoor activities, not too big/not too small... but for a tree lover like me? No way!

Ya, but much less so than Grand Junction! South of the downtown is a nice valley that I think someone who loves trees could be happy in.

Anywhere on the eastern side of the country is very likely to be forested. With the exception of some Midwest areas.

This video really shows why Atlanta is nick named the city of trees.
