My Favorite Thing About Living Here Is...

Your campground and its surroundings sounds wonderful!

Me, I have lived for the past 27 years in central Connecticut in a beautiful old historical town in a beautiful neighborhood with lots of trees and a miles long walking path right outside my door I use every day for my walk. Spring is coming on strong with shoots and flowers coming up everywhere.

One of the best things about where I live is that it's halfway between NYC, where most of my family lives, and Boston, where I lived for 27 years before where I am now. We spend a lot of time both places. Plus we're within an hour of most of our 10 (!) grandchildren.

If I had the $, I would happily live in New York, but it costs $5 to sneeze there.

That area is gorgeous!  And having all four seasons is magical!

I live in WA and all of the nature is so pretty here, the pine trees and rivers and mountains. I have friends in California and when I visit them in the big city it's just not the same, they call me a tree hugger LOL. Save a tree, hug a lumberjack!!!

The trees are so tall there!  I remember visiting in the Seattle / Vancouver area and being totally impressed with the trees.  And how green everything was from the rain!

WOW! I would love to live where you live. I live near Washington DC. I like where I live because there are lots of bike paths and walking trails; my house backs onto the woods and a creek; I have a fox friend who visits me (from a safe distance) in my backyard; the squirrels practically scratch at my back door every day at lunchtime to get their peanuts; and probably some other things I'm forgetting to mention. But sometimes I feel like a fish out of water here, too. I've lived here for 22 years. I was born in DC. 

I'm with you, Anne. I would live in NYC in a heartbeat. Seriously, if someone called me tonight I would be on my way up there immediately with a little duffel bag. The prices where I live are comparable to NYC except for gasoline and cigarettes. The cigarette thing wouldn't bother me because I don't smoke. The gas, well, I just wouldn't have a car!

I'm talking myself into moving to NYC...

Where you live now sounds pretty special to me!  I doubt Mr. Fox would follow you to NYC.
