You can hear it now:
“Say Hoboken.”
“Oh boh KEEN?”

If you haven’t figured it out yet (this means you my 2-3 loyal readers, and you know who you are ;-) ), then yes, we’re moving to Hoboken. After several grueling days of looking at apartments, we finally found one that has location and a view and is “reasonably” priced.

Either way, the ferry dock is about 150 feet from the entrance to the building so there’s my winner.

Hoboken beat out Edgewater & West New York for numerous reasons, but the biggest is the real estate mantra: Location, location, location. Again, 150 feet from the ferry dock; grocery, dry-cleaning, wine/liquor store, drugstore and Starbuck’s on the premises; sensational view of the Empire State Building and points south; restaurants, bars and shopping a block away (never mind across the river!); and the city of my birth (never-mind Frank Sinatra!)

But before we can enjoy all of that, we need to pack and move, so if you’ll excuse me, I’ll be going now.
