I lived in the same place (northeast) for 35 years. I didn't know anything different from my own little surroundings all those years. Now, after moving twice since and including here (southern AZ) on the other side of the nation... it is amazing how naïve one can be about virtually everything!
When we were considering Arizona from the Northeast... all I could think of was "I don't want to live where there is just rock and dirt... no green." Waaaaa, Waaaaa. Now that I am over here... the warmth, the most glorious sunsets I've ever seen, the uniqueness of the desert, the history of the area, etc. Etc. etc.. . there is enough green here to roll over any thoughts of thinking I would have missed anything! I was cold and miserable 70% of the year in the Northeast and lived for the summers. Besides... The Northeast is only green for a very short period of time. And then it is either blah, drab, cloudy, rainy, etc. etc. etc. etc.. July August and most of September are the best months. Because sometimes June does not warm up. Here it is guaranteed!
