I can relate to this piece so much. I appreciate your thoughts here. What is more interesting is that Fort Wayne is my "home" now. Update New York is where I grew up. And it is really weird to call Fort Wayne "home" even though our family has been here for almost 13 years now. There is something about your childhood home that just sticks with you, no matter where you go.
Oh that's so great! I hope you're loving the Summit City. Be sure to have one too many Coney Island hot dogs for me. :-) I missed out at Christmas this year.
Interesting read to me since I do not have a hometown. Not really. Pittsburgh is my birthplace, and my nostalgia for it is from my parents' influence because we left there when I was two years old. My dad, a pastor, moved from place to place: to Pasadena, CA, to Buena Park, CA, to Columbia, SC, to Highland, IN, and back to Pasadena. Since all that movement, I've lived in Charlotte, NC, for 32 years (and counting). I consider it my hometown now, but I can't go back to it like you can yours.
