I think I live in a pretty fantastic state. Virginia has a little bit of everything...mountains and trees and beaches. It is truly beautiful...and I'm always reminded of how much so especially at this time of year when the Old Dominion busts out some crazy Spring color, sounds, smells, and gently warming air.
Fall is also fantastic around here, but lets not talk about cooler weather right now. I think, as much as I want to shake it up and experience new places totally not what I'm used to, while I'm planted here? It's good. We are close to family and have lots of friends we are thankful for...and I can't pack them all up and take them with me.
I do hope one day to take my gypsy urge up on it, though. I'm pretty close to talking my hubs into moving to an island, or a desert, or even a huge city where I'd probably stick out like a sore thumb the first time I had to ride a subway. I also might scare people when I bust out of few "y'alls", but that's just goes to show how important it is to take your roots with you wherever you feel called to wander.

I know how you feel! I've moved, every year since I was 17. I've been in this apartment for 6 months (totally new to me! Always been in a house) and I'm ready to get somewhere new. I love living in northern SC.. super close to the city, only a few hours from the beach and mountains, but I want something totally new. Something out of my comfort zone.. which I'm sure will make me want to move back home. Love your photography!
I have lived in Florida (11 years), Georgia (7 years), and South Carolina (16 years). All those places have special memories and sights and sounds and smells associated with them. I know that I could make "home" any where, but I do love the South :)
Virginia had a uniquely vibrant Spring. Enjoy it for however long you're there, but don't be afraid to explore far away, either! Change is a good thing...
