A southerner's first impressions of Jersey

When I moved to Florida, the first thing I noticed was how much slower the pace seemed and how much nicer the people were.

The only thing I missed was the food, which still remains after 20 something years.

This winter has reminded me that you couldn't drag me back to New Jersey in a straightjacket.

Aside from the weather, the overall materialistic attitudes and generally glum feeling for half of the year made my soul long for something else.

I'm a Yankee by birth and a Southerner by the grace of God.
