Huntington, Suffolk County

used to live there

I thought I’d hate Long Island where I moved there to go to school at SUNY stony brook. But I came to love it. It is beautiful by the water in winter and I miss the state parks. I loved Caumsett and Orient Point. I’ll go back to visit friends but probably will never get to enjoy the nature again…

Celebration, Florida

it's really kinda wierd

I live about 20 minutes away and I go to Celebration when my visitors from out of town request to see it specifically or if I know they like wierd things. It is like Pleasantville. But in a modern way… lots of preppy pre-teens with expensive designer handbags and J Crew outfits driving around in electric cars in a town with picturesque stores that sell nothing useful. Adults seem to come out only at night except on the golfcourse which is busy at any time of day. The houses are all somewhat the same as are the streets, cars, dining options and the people. It’s creepy but in a non-threatening way. It’t ok for dinner and a quick stroll around but not a destination. I’d classify it as upscale idiotic. I can’t understand a town that wealthy and built up without a bookstore…

Jackson Hole, Wyoming

Untitled

I love the skiing here and the winter is the best time to go. It is quieter and the snow is the best anywhere if you love deep and steep. I would go every winter with my ex and it was so much fun to walk in town at night or eating sourdough pancakes for breakfast at Jeddediah’s- there is nothing like sitting in a hot tub in the snow after pounding downhill all day. Well maybe hitting the gondola for first tracks after serious overnight snow is better, but maybe just different. I gave away both pairs of skis and my favorite Lange boots when I got divorced – to make a break with those shared memories. I regret almost nothing in my life but giving up those skiis… I’ll get over it I’m sure… now that I live in hot and sunny Florida, Jackson Hole is becoming just a memory.
