Same here my friend. When are you coming for an east coast visit?
Good question. I have neice that relocated to Anchorage, Alaska and the wife visited her for a week this summer and fell in love with Alaska. She wants us to fly out next summer, rent a car and drive around for two weeks. And I'd like to take a trip by myself to an isolated fishing camp in Canada next summer too.
So this coming year is probably out for New England again. But I will return. That said other than Quabbin, Mass has become really congested compared to my boyhood memories of the 70's. But I seem to be finding that just about everywhere. Two of our local lakes have so may residents they are now incorporated cities. And I have 100 lakes in my county.
Thanks for asking!
