Now...here's a story for you...
“I was talking to my favorite uncle this past weekend,” my friend said. She was telling me a story about how she had gone to the East Coast of Florida to visit her family. She’s from there and loves it. She wants to move back there, but there are a lot of “practical” things keeping her on the West Coast.
