The end is near. I turn in my laptop at noon and then the adventure begins.

Here's a quick update on the plans:

1. Departure date has been set for Friday Jan 6th
2. Plan is to do two good days of driving Sat and Sunday and hopefully hit the mountains by day 3
3. Planning to spend a couple of days in Ashland OR with Tanya, John and Nathan
4. Then its straight up to Van
5. Got a temporary place for Jan/Feb
6. Start work Jan 16th..that's right work.

Friends keep asking if there will be a going away party. I'd prefer not as I'm not big on festivities centred around me. So its lots of lunches, teas and dinners as I try and see everyone who is important to me before I go. Its just adding to weight gain problems :)

More to come next week as I have some time in between packing my worldly possessions for the move.
