Well I guess now is the time to announce that I'm moving finally. I've been living in my grandparents old house for the last 5 1/2 years here in Texas. I love it here, but as with all homes, they just become a burden on my aging grandparents (and me!), that they have sold it!
I'm sad to leave, what I consider the house I grew up in, but very excited to announce my next adventure! I wasn't really sure if I wanted to stay in the DFW area or move elsewhere, such as the West Coast, or maybe Chicago? I had a friend from work say they wanted a roommate, and that I was welcome to come to New Orleans! I never thought I'd ever live in Louisiana, much less The Big Easy, of all place, but after much thought, I decided to do it! For a city in the South it probably has the most to offer for a railfan. 3 LD trains going 3 different directions. Plenty of streetcars to ride as well. I'll still commute to Houston for my work trips, and I'll still visit DFW to see the family pretty often.
So I'm heading down on Thursday to begin apartment hunting, and hope to be moved in by the beginning of September. I'm also really excited to be moving boxes and furniture in 99% humidity in the middle of August!
