Hi.

This is the story of how life can change too fast. From Asian beaches to Irish chemo wards, we document it here.

Jun 30 Goodbye Michigan

Travel, USA

The culmination of Mike's road trip was a visit to his old stomping ground:Traverse City, Michigan. I had been there once before, possibly before we were even married. We camped on the lawn of his family cottage and did some swimming, which is all I remember.

Of course we all know how cool that area has become in recent years so I was dying to get back up there. On short notice we booked the last VRBO in a 50 mile radius along with Will and Kristin, friends from High School who live in Indiana.

The Move

For many reasons I'm going to spare you the ins and outs of the job search, interview and negotiations. Suffice it to say, there was a day when he signed a contract.

I was still really apprehensive about the move but there was nothing left to discuss, so I looked Mike right in the eyes, mine wet, and said, "I trust you let's do this".
