Coming home

 
Being the new person at work, there are many times in the past few weeks when I've been asked where I live. The response has been greeted pretty much the same way each time: with an incredulous look and a why. Most people live along the lake, and out where we are, even though it's only 25 minutes by train from the city, is the sticks.

So I reply about family, and explain it's not that far away, and insist it's very beautiful.

The family they can understand, the distance they admit is not too bad but, with no lake and only hills instead of mountains, I can tell they never believe me about the beauty.


Too bad for them.
