Having lived in 7 states and outside the country for 2 \u00bd years, the north was never on our radar. There were too many other places we wanted to live and living overseas again was one of the things we wanted to do.<\/p>\n

So, here we are and I wouldn\u2019t take it back, not for a second. I was tagged by Linda<\/a><\/span> <\/span> from Florida last week (while I was out of town) asking me to post 5 things I love about my state.<\/p>\n

5 Things I Love About Where I Live<\/strong><\/p>\n

1. Number 1 has to be Home \u2013 “It takes hands to build a house, but only hearts can build a home.” – Author Unknown<\/p>\n

2. The country \u2013 I love the country side \u2013 It\u2019s a place where things move at a slower pace \u2013 I find tranquility no matter where we go and I love living where there is virtually no traffic to speak of.<\/p>\n

3. Autumn \u2013 Autumn is my favorite season! I love the cooler months leading into winter – The changing of the leaves has me mesmerized to this day. The photos below were taken last year and my readers who have been with me for a while have already seen these.<\/p>\n

4. Winter \u2013 I\u2019m on the edge of my seat waiting for snow. As a matter of fact it was in the forecast last week while I was out of town but no such luck. I was rather delighted as I didn\u2019t want to miss our first snow of the year. We have a mixture of rain\/snow\/wind in the forecast today and I keep looking out in hopes to see the white stuff.<\/p>\n

This was how I spent last Valentines Day!<\/p>\n

5. Animals \u2013 Oh how I love the animals that I\u2019m not used to seeing IRL. I still do a double take daily as I see the deer stroll through the backyard. And I stop what I\u2019m doing and watch them \u2018til they\u2019re out of site.<\/p>\n

Beauty in the front yard this past summer<\/p>\n

Hope you enjoyed!<\/p>\n
