I too have lived in Ohio but never made it out of the city and I don't have aythig good to say about those areas....but I know once you get out of the city Ohio can be lush rolling green hills and endless beauty! Cogratulations to Liz on the promotion!

Well, we are moving to a small town, so the city life won't be an issue.


Thanks everyone for the well wishes!

Exciting and depressing news. Congrats to both you and Liz. I certainly have enjoyed time with you guys on the trail and at the gym. Both of you will be missed.

How will I ever learn to set anchors? Say What? How will I do all the canyons in that book if you and Liz move? dunno Did you even think about this before making your decision to leave AZ? I guess you've got a lot of teaching to do before you leave, that's all I've got to say.

Good news is you won't have to worry about shipping your gifts back to Arizona after the wedding!

Matt that means your only going to be a days drive from me. Time to get yourself a kayak and we can meet up halfway for some river trips.

Get ready to see a lot of green buddy.

There is a marina by my house named "HOFFMASTERS". I keep meaning to take a pic for ya. HUGE lettering, you can see it from the I-95.

Keep me informed on the move. There are a lot of sweet spots to explore. My fathers side of the family all live in Cleavland, so I get out there every so often.

I planning a Shenandoah thru hike for May next year. Pencil it in...

Cool

Excellent! Dude... you're making this worthwhile. Now I have something to look forward to back there. Even though I'll miss AZ like crazy, I'm really looking forward to the new adventures to be had in the East. I didn't really do anything exciting while I was growing up there. It'll be different this time!

Here's the deal: Liz and I have found a house to rent and we are moving to Ohio on Sunday. My last day of work is tomorrow and the movers are packing up our stuff this coming Thursday. We are leaving this great state early on Sunday morning. I might be without internet for up to 2 weeks, so be patient and I'll respond to you guys.

Hey, thanks everyone! I'm still sad to leave AZ, but I am looking forward to the adventures I'll have back east.
Mike, it'd be sweet if you came out there. Ryan and I have big plans. Plus, I plan on getting a hammock, so that'll be cool.
GeorgAz, thank you. If you have suggestions for moving the cats, I'm all ears. They know something is up, but they seem excited, not scared. That'll change on Sunday when we fly out of here.

I'm officially unemployed. Yay me! Confused
