I’m originally from Massachusetts and chose to live in Maine.

I love Maine.

I grew up in Quincy, moved to floriduh, made my escape to Maine and haven't been happier in my 50 years of living

Florida is a pit of humidity, shopping centers, and despair.

You got that right and angry unstable people. The state does offer some incredible outdoor environments once you get away from the pavement of despair. This is one of the only good things about the state. All in all a shitty place to live unless you like heat, angry people and lousy and performative politics

Lol are you me?! I moved to NH from Flarduh. Florida really is like that if you aren’t living in a bubble of wealth.

Very true. I feel bad for my friends down there who can't get out, that and knowing they've never experienced living in new England. Having lived in several places on the east coast, nowhere compares to living here. Very grateful to be back home.
