congrats pem!! I am just curious, what made you want to come back or what is it that you dislike about NC. I have never been there, but of the places on the East Coast, it’s seems to be one of the up and comers. NFL and NBA both put expansion teams there and I have it on my bucket list of places to visit. It’s location seems to be south enough to keep it from being too cold and North enough to keep it from too hot. If you tell me it’s humid, then I’ll understand.
It’s just a curiosity, I’ve had many aquantainces over the years move to other states and return within a few years. Most cite their inablity to tolerate the cold of the northeast or the rockies, some couldn’t handle the humidity of the south, some cited idealogical isolation or economics of the heartland. But of those that have gone to North Carolina, none have retuned, so I guess I hold it in higher esteem than some other places based on those water cooler conversations.
