...Heading West

I’m going to take a tactical pause here for a few weeks.  You see, I’m packing up the house, closing out my SIPR and SOIS accounts, and heading west.  Westward Ho.  Go West Young Man (or woman).  West SIDE! 

Its hard to leave this place.  I always pictured the day I left The South:  80 mph and not looking back.  But that’s not the case.  I’m not 100% in love with Fayetteville, North Carolina…not even close; my love probably hovers around 15%, slightly above my love for Sumter, SC but well below my love for Fort Walton Beach, FL.  However, I am a true convert to this particular place I work, the people I work with, and the things we accomplish.  Its hard leaving but I won’t get in to that now (we’ll save that for later).  Because what makes leaving this place much (MUCH!) easier is what I’ve got to look forward to:  A cross-country road trip with mi madre, an 18-month sabbatical to Monterey, California, and life back on the west coast.  The only thing I can say is whoot-whoot!

So I’m taking a tactical pause while we make the Great American Road Trip to the Best Coast.  But all is not lost Wino Lovers!  Feel free to follow us on:  http://dispatches-from-the-road.blogspot.com/
