Leaving Californy with a banjo on my knee

[SoCalGlide]

Well, no banjo, but the house is in escrow, and we'll be moving to Virginia within a couple months. Virginia's not my first choice, but the wife said she doesn't want to spend the rest of her life living 3000 miles away from the daughter and grandkids. Some things a guy has to roll with.

We're close enough to retirement age to make it work. We're headed to the Hampton Roads area, or thereabouts. Going to load everything in PODS, then we'll take a leisurely trip across the US in the motor home with the LJ in tow.

I am looking forward to visiting all of the historical sites there. Our daughter lives 5 miles from the Yorktown Battlefield.

Don’t let @Mrs.Apparition see this she’s a history nerd, she’d be jealous.

I lived in Hampton for about five years in the mid-70s. I'll bet it's changed a lot since then.
Best wishes to you in your new adventure!

Probably will come up with a change, but Vaglide doesn't work for me.

Thanks, and that's exactly how I'm treating this. It's a new adventure.

Yeah, because being able to ride my motorcycle year round, and hit mountains, beaches and valleys in a one ride sucks. And all of that BLM land in the states to go driving the Jeep in is just too much to stand. And the $720/year I pay in property taxes thanks to Prop 13 is just too much!

Then you need to STAY THERE, if you don't "get it".

Oh, did you leave California because they were going to throw belly dancers in a gas chamber?
