  • City Suggestions

       December 05, 2004

    Thank you all so much for your great suggestions on a new city for me. Oddly enough, I've been to most of the cities suggested, and these are now my new favorites:

    1. San Diego. I've only be to San Diego once, and when I was there I spent most of my time in LaJolla, but I thought it was just absolutely beautiful. Plus, my secret dream job is to be the head of marketing for the Del Mar Thoroughbred Club. I know it's incredibly expensive, but I think about LaJolla and I still just have to catch my breath.

    2. Austin. I know Austin is probably the most liberal place in Texas, but I loved it when I was there, although, the whole bat thing kinda scares the hell out of me. I would live there for the plentiful Mexican breakfast places alone. Live music is another bonus.

    3. I spent a week in Louisville at the National Farm Machinery Show (don't ask), so I'm just going to assume that's Louisville at it's worst. What intrigues about Louisville, beyond Churchill Downs, is that seems like an older city that still has neighborhoods rather than subdivisions.

    4. Columbia, South Carolina: As a straight woman, I'm not at all intested in "all the waitresses are college girls in schoolgirl outfits", but, ever since "The Prince of Tides", I've liked the idea of South Carolina. I've never been there, but I do know that a lot of the major thoroughbred stables still winter in Camden. At the very least, someday I'd like to take a vacation down there along the ocean.

    So that's it for now. If you have any other suggestions, keep 'em coming. And thanks again!

    I was just in Madison this week on business for a couple of days. I was struck by the incredible collection of loons in one not-so-large city.

    Try Cincinnati. It's notoriously conservative, with slightly warmer and better weather. We have two underperforming pro sports teams and a body of water (The Ohio River). The economic climate is okay as well.

    Yeah, Cincinnati is a little too notoriously conservative for me. It's not a bad place though. The bars along the river on the Kentucky side were nice and I loved the Oldenburg Brewery.
