If ever you should feel homesick, remember this: look around.
Before long, you’ll find something that is familiar and right. Take this water valve. I saw this walking back to the office from lunch today:
Albertville, the “Fire Hydrant Capital of the World” is just 100 miles northeast of where I grew up. (I remember the first time I saw that slogan on a sign outside of Albertville. Now I’m going to smile about it every time I pass by that Mueller.
Also, I mentioned I found Milo’s Tea, right? That’s brewed in the town where I lived as a kid. Same water supply.
You just have to seek it out.
