Home Is Where Your Hat Is

This happens at our house every time this time of year. Getting back from suburbia and getting back into our urban routine is a bit jarring. The debate on moving continues. Since Jay-bee has nixed Florida as an option permanently, I have come up with some ideas in my own head. Here is my list of

5 Cities I Could Live In Besides NYC

1) Santa Fe, NM- i love this town! It is small and creative and interesting. If I could find a job there I would be packing my bags right now.

2) Raleigh/ Durham, NC- there are lots of things that are great about this part of NC. I could go on and on. Part of the draw is one of my good friends lives there! Oh yeah, and BBQ. Not Yankee BBQ. Real BBQ.

3) Atlanta, GA- I think this is about as far south as I could swing it. I need some change of seasons. I think they still get that in ATL.

4) Washington, DC- I have spent some time there and each time I go there I think "I could live here". It really is like NYC except politics are the focus of the town, not money and the arts.

5) Minneapolis, MN- the only thing that would keep this from happening would be the cold. Yikes! But Minneapolis has this really cool edge to it. They have a great art scene and my favorite store in the whole entire world has their corporate headquarters there.
