Almost outta here...

T-minus two days! The moving truck comes on Thursday and on Friday we're northbound on I-87. I'm really looking forward to it. No idea what the next chapter holds, but I'm eager for something different and looking forward to a fresh start and a change of pace. No matter what cliche we use, you gotta admit: If this is our reaction to a mid-life crisis, we don't mess around!

I love the big city and all its possibilities, but the lyrics to John Mellencamp's "Small Town" have always been my anthem. And while Albany is more a medium town than a small one, I think it's going to be a great place to raise our kids. I first saw New York City in fourth grade at age 10. Lincoln saw it from a stroller before he could walk. No matter where we go or what sort of life our kids create for themselves, they'll have South Orange as their foundation -- a diverse community in the shadow of the world's iconic metropolis where residents pay more than their fair share of taxes.
