East Coast vs. West Coast


It's been ten years since I packed up and moved here from the Boston area, more specifically, Cape Cod. East vs. West is a constant battle that plays out in my head. I love so many things about both places but with my roots in New England it's hard to resist the urge to move back. I know I can do my design and build thing anywhere... so, traveling to shows will be more involved if we are on the East Coast. Both my parents are retired and both are cancer survivors, a fact that reminds me that we are not invincible and our time here is limited. How much time do we have? How much time will we have together? I want to spend more time with them before I know the answer to those questions. This picture is from a trip to Cape Cod I took two years ago to visit my parents. It just reminds me of home.
