One time I was like 19 and this girl that I sort of knew from high school had moved away and then come back to our hometown and I remember she said, "oh this area just has a way of pulling everyone back."

And as a 19 year old I thought that was a terrifying thing to say. I still think at its essence it's a creepy way to phrase it because at a very surface level it implies that the land has some sort of mysterious power that people can't escape from.

But no now has a 32 year old I'm like yeah that's fine it's a cool place. I wouldn't mind living there.
