I always feel right at home when I visit there and I am sure that you do as well. I even slowly slip back into my Boston accent a bit—it's an easy transition! And yes, those visits "home" are precious indeed.

I've never visited Boston, but would love to. Charleston, SC, where my novels take place, is a fabulous place to visit for colonial "vibes." It's about a 2-hour drive from me, so my husband and I visit often for me to "Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3139112422565969072.post-44197200986334065252011-12-19T22:27:48.884-05:002011-12-19T22:27:48.884-05:00Thank you, Laura, for such a kind welcome!

I think CW is one of my favorite historical spots, too. "Surround" is certainly the right word for Early American life/history there. Old Sturbridge Village in MA is a site I've loved since I was a child. My first story was set there. So happy you're here on CQ, Elaine!!
