Home

This morning at about 2 a.m., I returned home to New England after three wonderfully exhausting weeks in Georgia.

Although I wasn't necessarily homesick at any point during that timespan, I felt revitalized by the more familiar sights and sounds of the rural North Country.

It was nice, for instance, to hear the Yankee accent and idioms ("Wicked Smaht") after nearly a month of y'alls. It was also nice to see the fields, forests, and rivers right where I'd left them, too.
