Akron is mine ( born in Brooklyn NY though ).
You know the Cuyahoga River valley is a national park now ?

The river used to be so polluted it would catch fire.

I didn't put up a picture of the Seychelles earlier. I've been all over the world and of the world I found the Seychelles uniquely beautiful.

Stupid people used to just abandon them there.
I guess this was before scrap metal recycling existed.

It's far flung to be sure but I guess that helped keep it pristine. I got there shortly after the airport went in on Mahe in 1972. I was there in 73 when it was still a British protectorate. Before that the only way to get there was by sea. I think they still have only the one airport for international travel. They may have strips on some of the other islands now. But likely only to and from Mahe.

Before Jaws came out and nobody was scared of sharks yet ?
Aren't those great white & tiger shark-waters around south Africa ?

Watkin's Glen, NY.

New York State does have its Leftist shitholes like NYC, but this is one of the most beautiful treasures of the entire state. The Adirondack Mountains. My family lineage can be traced back to the Palmers and Morans who settled in Franklin Co. and the small village of St. Regis Falls. My grandparents had a trailer which they built an addition to during the 1970s. We would go there every year for a week or two until 1978. After that, my grandparents sold the property.

When I used to deliver liquor, Watkins Glen was one of my last areas on my route before hightailing it back to Buffalo. Would usually end up being some late Friday nights.

Closer to home, we also have the Niagara Gorge at the mouth of the Niagara River into Lake Ontario in Lewiston, NY. Hiking trails and of course, one of the largest hydropower plants in the world, the Robert Moses Niagara Power Project.

There is a golf course there also.

Then of course, if you want to explore a little history, the Erie Canal stretches from Albany to Buffalo and passes through some quaint little villages like Middleport, Brockport, and Spencerport; and the cities of Lockport, Rochester, Syracuse, Rome, Utica, Little Falls, and terminates in Troy. This connects the Champlain Canal to the Niagara River.

I could build a Gilligan hut and retire there.
