Andy chillin' with his grandpa
The reason why we made to sojourn to the sunny state of California was to look for a place to live. We are leaving the farmlands of the midwest for greener pastures (we hope!) on the west coast. It will certainly be a very big change from the last 5 years here in the heartland.
Andy and I have "gold in them thar hills"...or rather family in the hills of CA. Andy's grandfather, grandmother,and uncle live in the Glendale/Pasadena area. And I have a niece in Loma Linda and aunt in Fullerton. We will enjoy being close to family for a change since neither of us has actual family where we currently live. Though we do have honorary family here! I'm looking forward to the change, but am sad to leave some things behind. I am NOT looking forward to smog, traffic, higher cost of living, higher crime rate, earthquakes, mudslides, power outages... Why are we moving again??? Oh yes, the land of oportunity and change... We are excited at the adventures ahead of us, new jobs, new investments, a renewing of familial relationships for both of us.
