The fact that they have 4 acres of land is much more valuable to his kids than having to share that property with a bunch of other people in the city, in my opinion. There is room to expand, build, hike, bike, walk, climb a tree, breathe fresh air that doesn't smell like pavement, enjoy nature.
Plus, who said they don't like cold weather? I grew up on the East Coast and I love Winter. I love seasons. I love snowboarding and hiking in the Winter.
I lived in SF for a while and didn't really enjoy it at all. Too much congestion, too many people and no fresh air. I could barely see the stars at night.
That being said. To each their own.

- jbattle 11y agoIt's brilliant. Once you get moving you won't even notice the cold. A snow-filled forest is one of the quietest and most peaceful places you are likely to ever find.
- bglazer 11y agoIn short, peace and quiet. I really can't describe how sublime the quiet of a winter forest is. Also, this may or may not be appealing to you, but I find it to be a humbling experience. Being alone in an empty winter forest really makes one feel insignificant. Not in the bad way of making one feel worthless, but instead in the way that makes your worries and aspirations seem trivial. I think it's a nice respite from the myriad concerns of daily life.
