As far as flights of fancy regarding the moon, I enjoyed Randall Munroe's "What if we put a pool on the moon" thought experiment. I would enjoy the experience of propelling myself out of the water like a dolphin!
There might be an exact location on one of the poles where the environmental controls don't require dealing with swings of -183C to 106C every 14 days.
Other radiation could be tolerated for short periods, mitigated by thick transparent domes with layers of water in between the layers?
