I’m a transplant from the wide-open spaces of South Dakota, so I guess you could say I have a variety of experiences to compare.
I miss those wide-open spaces and probably always will. There is just something about being alone in a universe of grass and sky with the wind ruffling your hair. But I am enjoying New Jersey also. I live in Jackson, about 30 miles from the ocean and an hour from the horror that is Newark (which, frankly, was my sole impression of New Jersey before I moved here). When you get away from the “city-fied” areas, this is actually a beautiful state. I love the beaches, the diners, the trees (yes, there are tons of trees in this state), the things to do and see…lots of things.
