I vote ocean, Newport to be precise.

I have been fascinated with the Pacific Northwest since I started reading the Shadowrun Sci-fi/fantasy books as a kid. That and all the Bigfoot stuff.

our first preference is to have ocean in front of us and forest behind us, so we'll see

That sounds gorgeous!
I've been in love with the Northwest ever since seeing Twin Peaks on DVD. That town!
And I love the old Bigfoot stories.

Do you remember that town from the movie ROXANNE. It's in B.C. Beautiful!

I guess I haven't seen that one. I will check it out, though.

It's that Nora Ephron picture with Steve Martin and Darryl Hanna. Kind of a Cyrano De Bergerac story. Anyway the town they were in was beautiful.

I have always wanted to live in the towns where Witches of Eastwick and Practical Magic were filmed, too.
I guess I will have to live a few lifetimes. haha

Since we are talking wish-list towns I'd love to live in Bilbo's home town in a little Hobbit hole of my own.

It is a romantic comedy but Steve Martin makes it more watchable for the guys. Anyway I like Nora Ephron's movies. She also did MY BLUE HEAVEN and MIXED NUTS. The latter is a great watch for any current Liv Schreiber fans.
I could live w/o the W-mart. Sauron is a great enough evil for me.

Bella , Me too!!! I love both those movies!!!
With the Witches of Eastwick all we need is one more person, Adrian can be the devil, it suits him. Any other takers?
