Lewiston is pretty durn little. And ccccold. Should we end up here, it would be a small town, cozy, wintry kinda life. The school is almost completely totally exactly like the one that I went to, right down to the semester setup. I don’t know if I would love it or hate it, being a family lady now. But it looks kind of sweet. A Norman Rockwell winter wonderland. Almost nothing going on, but Boston is a daytrip. Strangely, this little town has an inordinate number of castley kind of homes for sale. Do a search on Trulia for 4BR 3BA and you come up with pages and pages of 9 BR, 8 BR, 5, 7, 6. Most have been converted into multi family homes, but still. Is this a feature of New England towns?
The campus is small but really lovely – several buildings on the historic register. Several others that are slightly cheesy 80s decor. I like that it has the same semester setup that my college did – two long semesters followed by one very short spring one, during which you take only one class. It allows for a lot of off campus study. If this ends up in the running, we’ll have to look harder, but at first glance it would be a cold but not terrible life.
Aaaand we’re moving right along to . . . Auburn, AL.
Hm. "A cold but not terrible life". Something we all dream of…
I don\’t know if multi-family homes is just a New England thing, but there are a ton around us.
Better luck in AL 🙂

Like I said, winters up there are inhumanly cold. New England has a lot to recommend it in terms of culture, history, architecture, etc., but moving there from the Southeast is not for the faint of heart. You\’ll need a whole new wardrobe.
sounds cold to me…♥~♥ :oD because you shared a smile…someone\’s day got brighter… :oD ♥~♥
