I love where I live, in the upstate of SC, but I mainly love it because I love those I live with!! Greenville is very close to the mountains and we can see them from most points in town, and in 30 short minutes, you can be driving in the mountains, which I love. Lots of lakes, streams, lush green woods are all nearby.

But, I do miss living closer to the ocean. It takes approximately four hours to get there from here, and if I could be closer, I'd do it.

But yes, I love it here. I love having four distinct seasons, although our summers are quite hot. Our winters get cold, but not terribly, and we have the occasional ice/snow, but not very often. It is a great place, overall!!!
