Default Your favorite altitude

When you are flying VFR in good weather, what is your "comfort zone" for
altitude (irrespective of regulatory or other restrictions)? At what
altitude
AGL do you find that you feel a little too close to the ground, and at
what
altitude MSL do you find that you feel too high for your own comfort?
Also,
what type of aircraft do you normally fly (just to put these numbers in
perspective)?

More that once over the plains around Amarillo Texas I would fly cross
country at about 3 feet. I had to climb to go over the barbed wire fences.
Perfectly legal as best I could tell. I could easily have landed if my
engine quit. It is REALLY flat up there.
