But yes, that's why I personally picked the northeastern US. I like my seasons. And Fall foliage...

Same in OR. I've skied on Mt. Hood in the AM, drove 30 miles to Hood River to windsurf in the early PM then drove to Seaside for a sunset and dinner at Norma's (the best oyster stew and Dungeness crab cakes on Earth) all on the same day.
I agree, Fall colors in New England are unique in all the world. And Winters are special too. I have fond memories of driving my FJ-40 through blizzards of "impassable" Rte. 100 to my cabin, windows down, enjoying the silence and isolation of it all. I might have felt differently if the Cruiser broke down but of course you can't kill those things on proper tires.
