Smile Is it getting a little crowded here?

The U.S. population just hit the 300 million mark.

Is it crowded where you're at?

We're at just a little over 10% of that at 35,000,000

Plus, Canada is larger than the US.

I have some Tiaga & Tundra to sell you IYI

I'm headed for Montana, as soon as I can afford it. Missori still has a lot of fresh land to spread out on. I'm sooo glad I don't live on the coasts though. It's like a giant suburban paradise from Atlanta to New York City.

Yeah, but 90% of the country is under ice half the year!
I would say 50% of those 300 million are in FL, with half of 'em driving slow in front of me at any given time!

its crowded enough here, although it is a pleasant thought knowing i can hop in the truck and be on a gravel road in 7 mins[yes i timed it]. once you hit interstate 80 out of town theres miles of cornfeilds a little town here and there its great.

someday id like to build a house out in the middle of nowhere, someday.

Yeh, look at the burden we've eased from Vincente Fox's shoulders, and he can't understand why we would want to build a fence....a-a-a-w-w-w. We're just no fun anymore, are we?

Melbourne.. . . If the fine folks in Australia would allow me to keep the firearms that I currently have, I'd have to move 'down under' for sure.
I'd love to move to Australia!!!!!
