I live in VA, used to live in TN, and visit NH. I’ve been in NH during the winter and it really depends where you’re at as to how bad it is. The sea coast isn’t bad. The further inland and closer to the mountains you get, the colder it is. Nice thing is it kills the bugs. Except black flies which are a scourge.
I truly love TN and like I say it’s on the list. If NH doesn’t pan out, TN is plan B or C. As you indicate everyone’s situation is different. I plan on earning an income till I keel over, so income taxes matter.
There is a significant “libertarian” presence in NH already. Plus with the free staters moving in, it’s already shifting the politics a bit. The free staters have already infiltrated both political parties to some extent and there are somewhere around 12-20 elected free staters in the state house. They’re seen as a threat, particularly by the ‘rats. One ‘rat legislator characterized free staters as the biggest threat facing NH. Talk about the kind of endorsements you just can’t buy!
I didn’t realize you knew Tennessee so well. Sorry to have lectured. ;)
I’m just excited about ‘my people’ that I have never met. And only been through the area once - in the dark!
You must enjoy your work. Mind if I ask what you do? I’d guess an attorney. One of the good ones.
Libertarians should change the election outcomes in NH. Should be interesting - I’ll pay attention next time.
Coming from a ruined area, the thing I dislike about libertarians is just what I hate about liberals - they want amnesty and no borders, yet aren’t the ones that live in the crime-ridden, disease-filled, entitlement-grabbing areas that they create with their policies. It’s that hypocrisy that makes me seethe. But I think once I move back into the U.S., I’ll relax on the invasion issue. Out of sight, out of mind, you know?
You’re lucky to be in Virginia. Beautiful state. I hope she turns red again. We thought she’d be too much like CA, with the cities outvoting our SW rural area.
