Every time I've moved in my life, I do two things, I go to the library and check out books about the area, especially if done by a local author, then I spend days cruising, just going where the roads take me to get a feel for the place.

The crazy shit we hung off when we were in our early 20s was ridiculous (here, hold my legs while I dangle 50 feet above this concrete floor without a harness), but I got used it and it didn't bother me. It's been years since I've done it though and I find now I get vertigo just hanging up my Christmas lights on a ladder on the second floor. <br /><br />I also find myself wondering if my insurance will cover me if I fall, which I never used to think about.C.D.
