My wife was offered a job in York, Maine today. It is not a remote position, so I would have to pack up the family and head east. My job is remote, so I can live anywhere within one hour of a major airport.
Exciting and scary. Scary that I have lived here for 20+ years now and have deep roots. Exciting to be back on the coast I came from.
I worry about my wife. She has never spent an entire winter in the northeast. Both times she has been to Maine, it was unseasonably warm.....mid 80's back in early April. Then again it was in the 90's a couple weeks ago.

I'm not sure I could live there though. The cold and lack of city-life would kill me I think.

16 months later, I have yet to regret anything related to that decision.
If I had an exciting opportunity to move again, unless it was to somewhere like Marquette, I would likely jump on that boat.
Good luck with that decision  . |

100 miles from Foxboro. Not too bad, but I bet it is on a nasty snowy Sunday morning.
I'm only about 90 minutes from Boston, which would be most awesome. Go Pens!!!!
Still too far from you and a game of TECMO.

Time to get the house ready to sale or rent and find a nice new crib to move to.

EDIT: I guess Maine's not part of the NEK but I bet it is still beautiful up there.
