Yes and no.
I love having 4 seasons, as much as I bitch about winter. I love the hunting. My family was all born and raised here, so there is some heritage in the area. It's peaceful. ND has the same population as many metro areas in other states. Cost of living is cheap, and jobs pay decently. BUT There is a lot of straight and flat. Get to the lakes of MN or the Badlands of ND and it's not too bad, but I'm smack in the middle of 'em Winter sucks With not a lot of people, there is also a lot farther that we need to travel to find some of the "cool" stuff that is only in higher population areas. So idk. I guess I could move somewhere else, but it would never be a big major city FYI the Fargo/Moorhead area has a population of around 150,000, and that's big to me. |

so you wear sneakers/hiking boots to climb flat faces like that? isn't it slippery?
