Leaving Nashville

We left Nashville on June 12, 2008. It was a very sad day especially for me. Nashville was a new beginning of sorts for me and I love the city. As a matter of fact we both love the city and will miss it dearly.

But there comes a time to move on and our time has come. We have exactly 19 days until we leave for Taiwan. We will be there for just over a year until our visas run out. But we will not be completely tied to Taiwan, we plan on making many side trips along the way so stay tuned, you never know what you might see from us.

It is quite liberating reducing everything that two 35 year olds have down to one 10 foot moving truck (large van it actually was). We have it all in a room at Karen’s mothers house.

Reducing your stuff gives you freedom. It gives you the freedom to move around, the freedom to have fun, the freedom from undue expenses. It is amazing how little I miss our stuff. When you leave this world what do you get to take with you? Nothing? I disagree. I think that you get to take your memories. So what do we get to remember? Stuff or places, people, and things.

It was very difficult to me but in the coming months, years, and life come to our site often and see what we do, have done, and are planning to do.

To Nashville we will miss our friends, we had a lot of fun, and we will be back to visit, OFTEN. It is a great town!
