Greensboro I'm a coming

Well I hope that you all had a very good Christmas holiday. Mine was very good. Good times with my grandmother and her friends. Way too much food, as usual. She is very sad I am going to Greensboro. But she understands I need to do what I have to do.

So I fly up this afternoon, get my car and hotel and get an idea of the area. If I have time I am going to go by the store and visit them. If not today I will go there tomorrow morning. Since none of us have ever met each other it might be a good idea. One of the ladies who works there did work for Law Enforcement Supply when I was there, however she worked in the Panama City office so at least we know each other through talking on the phone. Once I get that out of the way I while begin looking at apartments. I have a list I am bringing with me. I hope the first place I look at turns out as decent as it seems from what I have seen on the web. If it is then I am going to take that place and be done with the whole thing. That way I can get the utilities and all set up and have the rest of the time to get my bearings around Greensboro. Since I am one of those people who am pretty damm good about directions and figuring streets out I should know where things are pretty quickly. It should leave me time to take some pictures of the area. So maybe I can sneak in a little roadtrip and see what my photography future has in store for me. This whole area is much more suited to my style of photography as you would expect.

I am going to run. Have some loose end to tie up this morning. Have a great week.

Lookout Greensboro, The Pez is coming

For good or bad, better or worse, and all other things that apply in this situation I am making the plunge and moving to Greensboro, NC. The exact date is still to be determined but in the first or second week of January I will be living in North Carolina. It looks like I will head up on the 28th and head back on New Years eve. Those couple days will be spent getting a place to live. I hope that is enough time to accomplish everything. If that goes well I guess I will move up sometime the following week.

So that means I have a whole ton of things to do the next few weeks around here. I have plenty to pack and plenty to throw in the trash and what I do not trash or pack is going to get sold. There are a few places near my house that will come in and buy whatever you have that you are getting rid of. I doubt you get a whole bunch for those items but any cash will help at this point. The less I have to move the better off I am and I suspect it will also cost a little less.

This is going to be a massive change for me. I have lived in Tampa longer than I have lived in any other town in my life and the house I live in now is the second longest I have lived in any place outside of the house I grew up in. So it will all be a bit overwhelming for a few weeks.

One of the big advantages is I will moving closer to Bluefield, Asheville and Ken's house. :)
It will be good for my photography. This area is much more rich with the things that I like to photograph. It should be a little cheaper than Tampa. Not much, but any amount helps.

So I am happy, glad, scared, nervous, excited, and so on......................................

That is enough for this morning. My brain is swimming with chaos.
