Yes, I noted this exact same thing. You did, indeed, refer to Bygeorge's post by saying, "That statement sounds extremely judgemental and you won't build a character profile from this website I'm afraid." Also, I wasn't aware that we were here to "build character profiles." You asked a question. Bygeorge provided you with some sound advice. Especially about the rattlesnakes. I neglected to mention those.

Hello,

Yes, He did give me sound advice and I did say it sounded extremely judgemental, I admit it, and at the time, in my opinion, it DID sound judgemental.
Particularly when a person brings up past posts which have nothing directly to do with Arizon and puts you on the spot, saying:
"You've been at this moving thing for............"

My business here is to ask questions, not get a judgement call/opinion on why I haven't moved yet, however subtle, from anyone.
If people don't want to answer, they/you don't have to.

Incidentally:
Why has this post taken a "Let's point out the error of his ways" twist?

This is between him and I, not you, if I may say so.

Our conversation Jukesgrrl is over. Please stop posting in non-relevant answers & material.

Someone told me everyone is either a fern or a lizard. You might be a lizard living in the wrong place that's why the desert is calling you. I'm also a lizard and right now live in so cal. I plan on moving to Tucson asap though and visit whenever I can. Tucson is beautiful and peaceful and the people are so friendly opposite of where I live now. I suggest you visit AZ and get a feel of everything on person and scout around to see if it has your many interests. ��

Hi Finper,

Thank you for your kind words and not attacking me or my motives.

It is beautiful there actually................I can't afford California, which is the actual place that I would probably love to live in. Maybe in the future.....not now.

I believe that Phoenix is a very key located city and If I move to Tuscon, I believe that Phoenix
would be where most of what I want to do would be largely accessible.
I can't move to Phoenix due to the branch of the Federal gov't I'm currently in not offering any jobs there!

I have been scouting Tuscon and it has many of the off work things that I enjoy however.

Thanks again,
Stefos

I'm a Ca native and I can barely afford to live here. Ca has good weather but that's it it's really spiraling down.
Phoenix is a 2 hour drive from Tucson. It's a boring drive but Az fwys are great! Very clean and smooth and no traffic

Very interesting, Finper . . .

I relocated to Tucson from Walnut Creek (prior to that, Newport Beach) almost twenty years ago primarily for those very same reasons.

My only complaint . . . "Why did I wait so long?"

For what it's worth . . . I find the weather in Tucson to be better overall than either the Bay Area or Orange County's weather. Also, let's not even think of comparing The People and/or The Traffic, as Tucson will win with flying colors.
