Heh! I was wondering how long that would last. You're too close to
your family to move even a few hours away.

I was brought up in a vacation spot, we had "summer people" all around
us. I used to ask my family why we didn't have a summer house and the
answer was always: because we live where everyone vacations! It's
kind of like being a permanent resident of Aspen or Cabo San Lucas...
visiting is great, but when you live there it's not a vacation - it's
home.
