Perhaps the BEST B1G Forum anywhere, here at College Football Fan Site, CFB51!!!

I can't even fathom that.  I definitely wouldn't get bored.  I'd be so relieved at not having to interact with other people.  A deserted island might actually be best for me, honestly.

Do you like it generally?  What don't you like?  What's your favorite thing?  How's the weather?  What would you change if you could?  Are you thinking of moving?  If so, why? 

Generally I like it.  Been here my entire life except for a few short stays at college and work assignments.

Favorite thing?  Cost of living, close to family & friends, laid back small town rural life = low stress.  No traffic, few people, midwest folks are easy to get along with.

The weather is turning to near perfect about now.  Fall is fabulous.  The humidity leaves, the frost kills the insects, temps in the 60s/70s during the day and 40s/50s overnight.

If I could change something, I'd be on or nearer a golf course.  About a 15 minute drive to the 2 courses I'm a member.

Thinking about moving because I'm not on a golf course and the winter weather is much too cold with far too much snow and ice.

In a world in which I could afford it and work less, (winning a huge Lottery)

I'd have a place on the golf course here to visit family and friends, across the river in South Dakota for tax purposes.

I'd probably spend most other nights in Holiday Inns traveling.  Let the maids make the bed and vacuum the floor, and clean the toilet

For my first job after undergrad college, I traveled about 80% of the time.  And when I traveled, I'd often be gone for 3-4 months at a time.  So for almost 4 years, between the ages of 22 and 26, I lived in hotels, with meals on the corporate expense account.  I can certainly agree, it's pretty great.

The wife has said true luxury is living in a very nice hotel.  She knew a lady in Paris that did this, she was getting along in years, and just had a room at some boutique hotel and had room service. 

We once stayed at a pretty nice suites motel here in the ATL that was $79 a night, bedroom, living room, kitchen, free breakfast, dinner 4 nights a week, pool, gym, Internet, daily cleaning, TV ...

I could understand when you're getting on in years as a time, but I would find living in a hotel to be much like the discussion we had about living on an island. On an island, I'd just feel "cooped up". Living in a hotel 100%, I think I'd be unable to ever really get over the fact that I don't ever really have "my" own space.

Which is of course not to say that I don't like staying in hotels. While I didn't travel THAT heavily, the years I spent traveling significantly were awesome. I got to see far more of the country [and the world] than I could if I was trying to vacation on my own dime. Did it mean I'd have to have meetings with customers during the day? Sure, but then I'd have evenings to myself to experience the local culture. 

And the knowledge that all you're eating on the company dime, not paying for gas or putting miles on your own car, and the only thing you need to worry about is packing your bag at the end of the week and flying home is great. 

Of course, those were the days when business travel was my vacation from my needy kids and the wife I didn't particularly like and ended up divorcing. Now that I try to schedule travel around my custody schedule, travel takes me away from the wife I *do* like and it only does it when we wouldn't have the kids. So I try to minimize it as much as possible, and try to build it into weekends where she can fly out and join me for a getaway when/if I actually have to travel.
