Reply to comment by c_l_who in I miss Vermont so much by immersedinideas

I have a surprisingly similar visceral response upon crossing the state line. Unfortunately I’ve not been able to find my way home, and as a 5th generation Vermonter (only ever met one other who was a 6th), trying to get back after going to UVM for medical school was and is still a challenge. I applaud those who are able to make it work, with a healthy amount of jealousy.

I third that notion. Same feeling of relief.

My family's roots here are long and deep. My father takes great pride in my children being 7th generation. They, however, just roll their eyes.

The reaction really is visceral. Hard to explain to someone who hasn't experienced it.
