Could I live here?

Wherever I go, I like to ask myself that simple question; would I – or rather – could I live here? As far as the greater Charleston area of South Carolina is concerned, the answer is an unqualifed “no”. My reasons for this are twofold: First, I'm not a marine person and second, I hate any form of hot and sticky weather.

I love the beaches though, but only during the off season and for up four to five days maximum. So at least for now, you know why I'm so attached to my mountains and can resolve myself to leave them for long...
