One way ticket East

Chair out the window, boxes and Jetta on two separate trucks, Grover strapped in wearing his new New York Yankees hat, on route back to Sesame Street. For the last several weeks I was surrounded by the love and support of many friends who all, in their own way, contributed to the move.

At the moment, I'm at LAX waiting for my flight, not experiencing the same 'Move Day' adrenalin that I had yesterday!!

Suzi and I were on a beach walk the other morning and we were discussing the fine art of 'letting go.' My friend Lauren in San Francisco (now Chicago!) once said that when you let go of something, it's amazing to see what will then rush in. Of course it's like being on the high dive bar; you have to ignore the nerves a bit, remember it's an exciting adventure, and just do your part and jump! I am loosening my grip on lovely San Clemente but my dear friends in both SoCal and NorCal remain in my heart - and that's where home really is.

Bye for now California. We'll see where I end up on the infinity circle. And as our Governor once said in his most memorable movie "I'll be back!"
