Dear John (or Massachusetts)

So here it is, my Dear John letter to Massachusetts. Been meaning to write this since we've gotten back from Disney so here it goes:

Dear Massachusetts,

For the past 30 years it's been a love/hate relationship between us. I've grown to love you for your Boston sports, your summers are great and the culture here is quite unique.

However, I hate you for your winter, your snow, your cold weather, your nasty seafood that everyone seems to like.

So here I write you a fond farewell, I'm leaving you for the warm weather and beaches of Florida where I never have to worry about shoveling my driveway, my allergies won't be as bad and I can pretty much go swimming 365 days a year. I'll find a way to get Boston Sports so adieu Massachusetts.

Signed,
Dan


Of course I'm really not leaving MA, not anytime soon at least but this is what I'd write if I did lol.

Dear Dan,
I read your letter to Massachusetts and write to you today to invite you to move to the South.

You don't need a snowblower at any point during the year, and we have baseball teams too. We celebrate every event with a special drink. Hurricane parties anyone? However, be warned that we like to keep our humidity level set on "soup" for three months straight. And we still have that so-called "nasty" seafood in our cuisine.

And please don't go swimming in the Gulf; it's currently a bit dirty.

In any case, we would be glad to have you here! Just learn to start pronouncing your Rs. And bring mosquito repellant.

Sincerely,
The Gulf Coast
