I got dragged all over the eastern half of the country when I was growing up, went to coastal New England in my 20s, bounced around a little (NY and DC) and finally moved out here in my 40s because I'd been there, done that back east and I knew if I moved fewer than 2000 miles away, I'd be tempted to go back to New England and I was too old for those fucking winters.
I came here beca8se AZ was too wingnut, CA was too crowded and overpriced, so NM it was. It's been a good fit, so I'm still here.

I volunteer in the local (N.J.) swamp. There is fox poop, raccoon poop, muskrat poop and Great Blue Heron poop.
