City boy turned country
After living in CA where I shared the roads with millions each day I now I have moved to a massive metropolis of 156 total and couldn't be happier. I lost great restaurants so it made me learn how to get serious about cooking. I don't have great museums or libraries down the road but I've got the Internet. I haven't closed a drape in years and only the Hubble could sort of look in - maybe? There is the price of commuting to and from work for those who live in more rural areas, but the peace and quiet more than make up for the added drive. We actually drive less now then we did when we were living in the massive cities. We learned how to be wiser with our time, fuel and resources. Meanwhile we now have a little slice of mother earth and are delighted to experience this moment when we're getting to take care of our beautiful countryside and critters that life alongside. City life is a great place to visit, but I'll never move back. We live a lot slower and don't have all the goodies the big city offers, but I also don't have the heartburn either. Now please excuse me while I go play Mozart on our grand piano with something tasty our Waterford wine glasses. I didn't say we were roughing it, only modifying.
