Well, mark, staring at the cinder block walls of my high school, I have much the same feeling. I start wondering what the Havens were like.
And I do have the sea-longing in my heart all the time. I live in land-locked Pittsburgh, and all the time I wish to "hear the cries of gull o'er shore".
However, today was an absolutely beautiful day; cool and crisp with the bluest sky I have ever seen. I felt okay to still be in Pittsburgh when I saw that. Of course, I had my face practically pressed into the grass with big people jumping over me (my gym teacher is an ex-drill sergeant for the Army Rangers)
