I miss.

Early this week I technically I already answered this in my Homesick post. However I think more of what I miss is the familiarity of home. Like knowing the backroads, the shortcuts home, the times when to avoid the highway because of Cape Code traffic. Being able to know where to get the best seafood, greek food, or pizza without having to Yelp it.  Knowing that in August the ocean water will be warm enough for the jellyfish to start making their way into Long Island Sound. Or that the 2nd weekend in July is Sailfest- which is one of the biggest fireworks displaces on the East Coast. 

I miss summer. Summers' in the New England are amazing- normally hot days followed by cooler nights that allow you (most nights) to sleep with the windows open. My mom's house is in Niantic, which is a beach community and in the summer tourist fill our town year after year for our beaches, fresh seafood, and small town feel. I'm hoping that eventually I'll find my little niches here I like- similar to Grace or Sailfest. I know WA will never been home but while I'm here I might as well enjoy what I can.
