Plus
-----
1. Buying petrol, and thinking how much it would cost back in UK.
2. Turn right on red
3. School buses, love the way everybody has to stop when they flash red lights.
4. Spring and Autumn are lovely.
5. NE corridor is cool: Washington, Philadelphia, New York, Boston. Not far apart by US scale, and all great cities to visit, with lots of historic buildings and fun stuff.
Minus
------
1. Medical costs. Being one medical disaster away from being financially kaput, even with insurance.
2. >90F and high humidity in the summer, <20F plus wind chill in the winter.
3. The stupid, careless, impatient drivers who scare everybody on the road. These idiots have guns and they will use them, check the local news around here!
4. Guns.
