[Main Blog Post] Texas

I love Texas, but is it the right place for my family in the long run? I think out loud here.

I just moved to New England from the West Coast. Having read your blog, I think you might like it here, too. I did not know that much of Northern New England was so hilly and mountainous. Of course it's part of the Appalachian range, but I thought there would be some flat areas. We've had a hot and humid summer, but I didn't find a need for air conditioning. The heat would be nothing to you.

With your love of history and as a practicing Heathen, it might be a good fit. There is something very, very magical here. If you ever want to know more, just send me a message to my dreamwidth account.

Hi Jon, thanks very much for the recommendation? I've only been to New England once, when I was pretty young (maybe 6 or 7?), but I remember it being very beautiful. Since then, I've met a bunch of New Englanders and gotten along well with them, including my best friend from Basic Training and two of my good friends from consulting. It would possibly be a tough sell, as my wife and I have both been raised with "yankee" as a bad word, but we'll see how things go, and if I do need further info, I'll take you up on your generous offer to reach out.

Cheers,
Jeff
