Oh, Charlotte, NC. You're a tempstress. I'm a resident. I'm a lover of all you have to offer. Your golf courses. Your weather. Your major professional sports teams. Your music venues. And even your lakes. Try as I may to think I'm too far from the water, your lakes are right there. In my face.
Oh Richmond, you're so romantic, though, at least in my eyes. You host my family and many of lifelong friends. My traditions. The James River. The sunshine (not that Charlotte doesn't have it!). No matter what, you're still my "home." Or, at least, my hometown.
Who knows where I'll end up. Oh Denver. Oh San Francisco. Oh DC. Oh New York. Oh...Charlotte.
People are the connections to my hometown. Richmond. The town I miss and long for, though Charlotte has at least as much to offer. If only I could make the James flow a few hundred miles to the southwest. Lord.
Lord have mercy! There's something worse to ask for than choosing b/t a great place or 2 to spend your time.
