Soon, we begin

We're a few days away from leaving Newnan (where we've lived for 3 years) and metro Atlanta where we've lived for almost 20. As I was finishing up some packing at my office, I came across this photo of much younger versions of Lisa and me. It was September 1993. At the time, we both worked for Delta and we'd planned a trip to Portugal. Something happened (flights filled up?) and we couldn't make that trip, so we decided to go to Seattle. The photo was taken on a trail on Mt. Rainier. That was a fun week for us, driving around western Washington and spending a few days in Seattle. We had a great couple of days exploring the city and particularly enjoyed listening to some good music at the Bumpershoot Festival. We both remember looking around at the festival and saying that Seattle might be a good place to live one day. If we ever got a wild hair....(hunt)

Don't forget to stop at the Alamo and look for PeeWee's bicycle.... Mick Jagger will be wearing "The Collar" on his next European Tour. Know that you are loved and missed.
