I think I've moved maybe 13 times over the past 35 years, Anna, Tod. So I've missed a few things over the years, but each new place's experiences engaged my interest. New foods to try, new museums to explore, and new faces to meet. I used to look forward to our next change of station, but I'm happy where we are now. Not too hot, not too cold. The restaurants are OK. The museums are OK. If I want more, we can head to Conventions and try new things and see old faces and new. 🙂

It might be half that Florida suits us and half we've suited ourselves to Florida. 🤷‍♂️

We find new things to enjoy, foods we like at each new place we've lived. When we travel home or to other places, we find the things we miss and enjoy them at that point. For instance, I love In-n-Out Burger, so when we head to Texas, I grab one or two for lunch. The same with The Great Greek restaurant chain that we found in Nevada. If I find a branch, I always stop there for a meal. And when we're home, we enjoy what we have in the local area. 🙂
