Minnesota. You and I. We've seen better days in our relationship. I realize I've been neglecting you the last year or so. I was thinking about it, and I've truly never been more places in such a short period of time in my life. Since just about exactly a year ago, I've been to Arizona, California, Colorado, Virginia, Wisconsin, Iowa, Texas, and Arizona again...plus Missouri, Oklahoma, Nebraska, and New Mexico if you count driving through. Kinda crazy for someone who considered herself a non-traveler...anyway. Minnesota, looking at all this freezing rain, can you blame me for leaving? Soon and very soon I get to make my escape again--venturing off into the wilderness of beautiful Idaho. Cannot wait. And I cannot say that enough. I used to think that I'd live in Minnesota forever. I like my four seasons, I'm comfortable here and don't really jump at the opportunity for change (plus the school system is pretty tops). But someday, I might just go for good. Who's coming with me?
