And…we’re off. It was really great to have some of our family see us off, and everyone else put a lot of effort to see us prior to our departure, so we want to thank you. Your love and support means so much to us, and without that encouragement who knows if we would even be leaving for such a grand adventure. You are what we will miss while in New York, but we’ll be back—plus, we want everyone to visit.
The train is fun and relaxing. Alex and I are eager for this trip and the progression all the way to New York. I am nervous that we will get bored, but we have plenty of games to play and things to be excited about. I am using this time to adjust my mentality and center myself by increasing my focus on the reality of moving. Alex is still a little in shock that we are actually going, in a good way. I’m nervous about the reality of the move: the apartment situation, finding jobs, having some sort of family support, and stretching our money. I am keeping all of this to myself, so I don’t worry my lovely wife, but I want all the parents to know that I am already looking out and planning—though currently it’s all hypothetical, since there’s no practical work to accomplish.
We want to say that we love you all, and please stay in touch through adding comments or e-mailing either one of us. Check out the video of the cabin as well—it’s tiny.
We would also like to give special thanks to Christina for being such a wonderful friend and helping when there was no familial or duty obligation, Cale for storing all of our furniture while try to sell it, Justin for helping us sell our stuff, and everyone who took something from our apartment; we really appreciate it and know that it has a good home.
