Didn't know of your relocation challenge, tho.<BR/><BR/>I did it three years ago, escaping the Northeast to move to western North Carolina. Most people thought we were crazy, but I had been trying to get out of New England practically since I got there! <BR/><BR/>Hold your nose and jump! If it doesn't work out where you land you can do it again! Scary, but do you want to be in the retirement home going, If only...?<BR/><BR/>I have loved it here and only wish I had done it years ago. I love my mountains and the creative community and the lack of brutal winter. And the slower pace of life, the more cooperative spirit, the lower cost of living.<BR/><BR/>Is it perfect? Of course not. Do I miss my few friends in Boston. Oh yeah. But I have made many new friends, which frankly, surprised me at my, ahem, advanced age. And I am renewed, rejuvenated (some might say overly so!) and content.<BR/><BR/>So, like they say, just do it! It isn't non-reversible and mistakes are not fatal!<BR/><BR/>Good luck,<BR/><BR/>MegAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19193398.post-1148797346063833812006-05-27T23:22:00.000-07:002006-05-27T23:22:00.000-07:00Was it Picasso who said, If you can imagine it, yo...Was it Picasso who said, If you can imagine it, you can make it happen...margarethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03157748924008663110noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19193398.post-1148774256408238242006-05-27T16:57:00.000-07:002006-05-27T16:57:00.000-07:00You've been busy, Sheila!

I also like the pale blue and emerald piece - very restful.<BR/><BR/>Shirley in New Zealand<BR/>(Also on surfacing list)Shirley Goodwinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01479768160284996206noreply@blogger.com
