New Hampshire has been my home away from home. I know I can rest my head in the comfort of Concord and watch the stars in Laconia. I had my first kiss in Franklin, and I experienced my first snow fall in Franconia Notch. I had my heart broken in Dover and watched my parent’s marriage die in Gilmanton.

I am not leaving any of this behind.
I won’t let the memories I’ve made here die.
I’ll shed a tear tomorrow and light a Marlboro as my trailer bounces behind my Ford Escape.

I’ll miss you when I’m gone.

But I promise I won’t be gone for too long.
