Avoid Brockton

They have the infamous Puppie Palace where you can get Goldendoodles and Labdoodles.

I love Brockton and most the people in it ... If I didn't want to live closer to the water I'd spend the rest of my days here ... Go Rox !!

I agree Ed we are central to everyplace. I am no more than 25 miles to the water in all 3 directions. Perfect if you ask me. Brockton is ok by me. There is bad everywhere. I think George must have had money on a few of Rocky M.'s opponents to hate the city of champions like he does, or just miserable from the plague he is fighting right now as I saw a hacking reasonable facsimile of him yesterday

Thanks guys for the response's on PR. Just looking to do a little relaxing with the family for a week in a warm climate, not schlep all over the place, although a little culture would be nice , rain forest and old San Juan. I really wanted to go back to St. Johns, Virgin Islands but way too expensive and takes forever to get there. PR is a direct flight so you are not wasting a whole day to and fro traveling, nice if you are only going for a week.
