BTW, how does this town look? A cabin in the outskirts of course. http://www.ouraycolorado.com/

And for a beach house, CF like the Pensacola area. We spent a weekend at a house at Pensacola Beach that was awesome, any recomendations?

We should also start planning a few languish meets, we need to spend this money somehow. :)

Screw Colorado.  You want a place in Alaska.   :cool:

I will visit first and decide later if I need to buy a cabin up there later.  I will start by cabin colection with places I have visited first. ;)

My retreat will most likely be somewhere between southern Kentucky and northern Florida.  Potential states include KY, TN, GA, AL, NC, SC, FL. :cool:

I would buy a place in Umbria I quite like.  I would keep a place here in Vancouver and I would buy a place in Melbourne.  That way when I become tired in living in the best city in the world (Vancouver and Melbourne always trading the #1 and #2 spots in ratings) I can take some time off in Umbria.

There's just much more opportunity cost and physical risk (well beyond the ticket price) for traveling to/inside a gas station rather than clicking from the comfort of my home. :(

At least WA and CA had automated machines in most grocery stores (the high-class way of buying lotto tickets, far above meager gas stations).  I understand MD has them in theory, but I never seen one outside of scratch-off ticket machines (the lowest of low class lottery gambling).

When I was poor, I bought all of my family members several scratch offs one Christmas. I liked the vending meachines as I didn't have to face anyone and ask to buy scratch offs. -_-

In Alabama it is easy, drive to the closest state that has it and buy it there. :)

My mother started doing that years ago for various holidays.  :lol:  It's a hoot, watching everybody working scratch-offs at the Christmas or Easter dinner table.  Baby Jesus wants me to match three bananas and win $40.

So humiliating, isn't it.
