Florida to NH

I told you in the PM I was concerned that people from other states were traveling up here RIGHT NOW - just as long time residents are concerned-when people are supposed to be staying at their current homes. I did not say they should be banned. Just my feelings of concern on how that could affect the area in terms of spreading the virus, the grocery store supplies and overburdening the hospitals.

I totally understand people wanting to escape the hot spots or urban areas.

I also stated how this was happening in other states as well. Just stating a fact, not an opinion.

Where we lived in NY it was also a vacation area and the same thing is going on there in the Catskills. I would be concerned about it also if I were still living there.

Do I think people should be "banned"? Absolutely not. I just think people on their own should stay in place for now.

We moved here on 2/6 after having a home built which we signed for back in June. (Our son has lived in NH full time for 10 years). We sold our home of 32 years and moved into a rental in NY back in Sept. until my husband could retire at the end of the year and the house here was completed. We knew of nothing about the corona virus during the past year.

Sorry you hate new residents and are projecting your feelings onto my post.

Why you feel compelled to target me twice I don't know. But here again is the response I gave you in the private message.

Have a good day and be safe.

A bit funny that you just came from NY and are telling me a NH resident that because I am currently in FL that I cannot come home. Too funny!

I am not telling you that. A resident should be able to come home and stay in place. Health experts are telling people to stay in place and are concerned about second home owners and renters coming up to vacation areas in their state. The more people move around the more it spreads.

The governor is asking all people coming here from other states to self quarantine for 14 days.

We moved here before the SH&*&^t hit the fan. Corona virus when we moved was still considered a "hoax" by the powers that be at that time. (We closed on the house on 12/31).

If the health experts had told people to stay in place before we moved we would have stayed in the rental until which time we could move. We had a one year lease anyway. And we did not become residents until a few days after we came here.

Sorry to break the news to you: New Hampshire natives do not consider someone a resident until they have lived in the state for a minimum of 30 years or are the second generation to live in the state.

Well- ha ha. Sorry to break the news to you but the only thing that we care about is that the state considers us legal residents.

Natives have every right to think and feel as they want.

Must be tough on them because from what I have seen almost everyone seems to be a transplant- mostly from Mass.

Very true. We could call them non native residents. So for example, I was born here as was my daughter. My daughter’s oldest child was born in Massachusetts, came home to NH at 3 days old, but sadly is not a native; her second child was born in NH and thus is a native.

Thus CHANGING the SUBJECT, like most (D) do when they have nothing else.

I was going to reply in detail but decided not to do so since I never engage in a battle of wits with an unarmed man/woman/person.
