Interesting points about creative and emotional release. I had never made the separation of the two, you've got me looking at it from a different angle.
Yep, in New England the weather never gets boring, but it can get a little overwhelming at times (not complaining at all...I love it here). I am one of those that thought that Denver has bad winters, maybe because of the comments made by the football commentators, such as the games between the Broncos and the Pats lol...well- now I know otherwise.
I can't say that I love being in the city (Boston) all that much - it does activate my anxiety to a point. But I have gone to see the Bruins, Red Sox, and rock shows there. I feel much more at ease traveling up and down the coast of New England, the ocean is in my blood sort of speak.
