I am really interested in your move from here and then your move back to here, what exactly is the difference? I am not just being nosy (well I am really), but I am interested because so many times I will get the urge to live closer to my children and grandchildren, but something stops me from making the move.

If I tell you that I really really miss growing my own Northern big boy tomatoes, or my own pole beans, asparagus, zucchini. Seeing daffs and tulips and crocus in the spring etc., it sounds really stupid. But, on the other hand, I do not miss the black flies, the mosquitoes, the very cold winters, the snow, the mud season and on and on.

What is really bringing you back?
