OK, I'm down off my soap box, now buy my expensive house so I can move
to Colorado and have room for a shop.

Be careful, when the people in Colorado speak of the immigration problem they aren't talking about Mexicans sneaking across the border...

Overheard many a conversation in diners over breakfast to that regard. I remember in Estes Park a couple years ago I was eating breakfast and listening two locals laughing at the CA transplants that didn't have A/C in their house to "save the planet"... So they left the windows and doors open afte moving to CO to commune with nature.
A mountain lion walked thru their front door, right past them, grabbed their labrador from the back bedroom and dragged it back past them for a snack. Of course the transplants were morally opposed to private firearm ownership...
The punch line was "How did you like what nature had to say?" and "Theres how nature communes with idiots"
