VFR in uncontrolled airspace is very

You're the only one that thinks that.

Well, someone has yet to give me a way that I can fly IN MY LOCAL AREA
without talking to ATC.

Are you unable (from where you're based) to remain below the DFW Class
Bravo...? What, are you based *in* the DFW surface area, like *at* DFW? If
that's the case, it's a loaded question!!!

Here in Phoenix, from my home field (P19 - Stellar Airpark), we can depart
straight out on RWY17 and step climb out from under the Class B. And as far
as going north is concerned we just head northwest toward Falcon Field
(KFFZ) staying east of the Class Bravo surface area and under the first
outer ring. You can turn north while still west of Falcon's Class Delta.
There is plenty of room to climb above the cumulous granite and still not
bust the Class Bravo...and you don't have to talk to anyone.

And driving two hours to an airport outside of town doesn't count - that
makes it difficult.

From reading what you're "saying" I would think this would just make it
*more* difficult. You already are saying it's difficult to begin with.
