    San Diego is my favorite. Spent lots of time there years ago.
    No longer. Too many people, and way too expensive in all respects.

    I was in NOLA in April a few years back. Comfortable walking around, all of a sudden it was as if someone turned on the sauna. Then, came the tornado watch. It wasn't all that hot, but man, the humidity. Soaked in sweat, and really uncomfortable for someone visiting from the Northwest. But I did buy a voodoo doll, and I still think of people and stick pins in it. Best purchase I ever made.

      We go to NOLA once a year (except 2020, LOL) since 2015.

      Times to go:

      1. March to late April
      2. Mid September to late October.

      Otherwise...nah.

      Come to Chicago.

      The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

        Fair, but after DC winters where you have 4 months of grey gray skies and temps hovering over a 35-degree freezing rain temp...I’d rather have winters where you know what to expect (cold and snow).

        And sunny winter days! The sky is quite beautiful on a sunny winter day. Big Al commented on how blue the skies are in Minnesooooooota in the winter.

          Absolutely! Plus, compared to DC at least, ya'll know how to handle snow. Snow removal... driving in the snow... heck, even indoor gold driving ranges!

            You need to be careful of the "Indoor Gold". It's just a posh name for yellow snow.

            I was only joking
