And now, I give you: the five senses!
Sight:
This is the first image for "syracuse" on google images. This is where I live.
Scent: Two days ago I woke up to an overcast and rainy day. While "it's going to be one of those days" remarks were being uttered, I quietly rejoiced; home has taught me to love the rain and that unforgettable first-rain scent. You Oregonians know what I'm talking about.
Taste: These are the freshest Swedish Fish I've ever ever ever tasted. If you enjoy Swedish Fish quite a bit, I suggest you give me your address and politely ask me to send you some, stat.
Touch: Boy, I'd give just about anything for a good hug right about now.
Hear: An ode to those going away and being away. But do come home.
