[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You clearly haven't traveled enough. The beauty out west is hardly unique.[/quote]

NP, here.  Have you been out west?  Just in California, you can be a day’s car ride from spectacular 14,000 foot peaks in the Sierra Nevada, deserts of Death Valley and Joshua Tree, redwood and sequoia forests, some of the most stunning coastlines in the world from Big Sur to the coastline north of San Francisco…and more.  This is just California.  Throw in Utah, Colorado, Montana, PNW, and Arizona, and I would say the western U.S. is pretty special.  I appreciate all the places I’ve seen abroad, but the western U.S. will always rank as one of my favorite places to visit.[/quote]
Yes, I lived out west for several years in my 20s and have been to over half the places you listed. I've also been to a dozen countries in Europe, much of Asia, and the South Pacific. The U.S. West is great. There are also lots of countries around the world with spots at least as beautiful. Why is that so hard to understand/accept?[/quote]

It's the amount of diversity that we have that us unique.  Yes, other places are pretty but they are one horse wonders - we've got everything.  If you don't think so, just leave.  We do have too many a$$holes who don't appreciate our country; I'd be happy if they just left [/quote]
You haven't been paying attention. Plenty of other countries have diversity too. Someone on the last page just described Colombia, which has certain features not even the United States (with all its wonderful diversity) possesses. It's quite possible to appreciate/love both what's here and abroad. You're the one who's narrow-minded.[/quote]
