JMT,

Oh my..food. I certainly cannot get fresh seafood here in IL! I cringe at the smell at the grocery store and want to stop people from buying it. If it smells like fish, it isn't fresh. lol

I moved here from coastal Mass and if we didn't catch our own from the boat, we bought it from a local fish market at the shore.

I do go home often to see family and friends- and thank goodness for e-mail
