 @LynAlden unfortunately I am unable to sell you the idea of New York City or other major cities that you’re missing because as it turns out, I’m missing the same thing myself. 

My mother and I have had this squabble a couple of times. She fell in love with NYC to the core and to this day, I can’t find a single fucking reason why. 🤷🏾‍♂️

When I used to hang around the Miami area often, I always avoided the “catastrophic down town experience”. That “major city” experience that is so dearly loved and cherished. It must be the introvert in me but I am clearly missing it as well. 🫂
