I have had a love affair with the city as long as I can remember. What else would make me have a warm spot in my heart for Tony Bennett? I understood the feelings of that song before I could understand the words. Hills and skinny houses, crabs and palaces - my home. Somehow I have always been on the outside, in the suburbs, held by parents and school first, and children and career for a long time after.
It is time to go home. Next summer, I will be moving back to my city. I have hundreds of little explorations to make.
