We settled on Avon mianly because of its proximity to downtown Indianapolis, where my wife will be working. I hear that it's growing, so as an architect, it might be a good place to find work. It was hard for us to decide between Avon, Brownsburg, Carmel & Fishers, but Avon just seemed like a better fit for us. We are hoping to find something in the north west side of town, but the rental house we like is actually south east. Not that it matters, it will probably be gone by the time my wife gets her final offer.
Feb.? that's wishful thinking, I'm saying October I'll be over it. Remember, where I'm at it's like 77 right now and doesn't usually drop below 80 until December. We will be the butt of all the jokes, wearing heavy sweaters in September, but hey, it's a new adventure, all good adventures come with some pain. There is an old Cuban comedian who would tell a long joke about moving to PA, how he was tired of the sweltering Miami heat, and all the garbage associated with living down here and he finally ups and moves to PA. He keeps a journal, and every day he writes about how happy he was to have moved, then the first snow hits. Still in awe by this event he speaks highly of it, then the second, and the third. Eventually he begins to curse out the plows, and everything associated with snow, or as he called it "White $#!+". Finally, his last journal entry read: "I moved back to Miami!"
It's funny, because I really can't speak of this move in public yet, so my Facebook updates have been very cryptic. Here there is a little more anonymity so when I'm about to burst with excitement or anticipation or something huge happens, I tend to come here so I can get it out before I explode.
I will admit that I am going to miss being so close to WDW, especially with my girls being at such a perfect age, but this way, they won't be saturated with the parks and when we do go it will be a big deal. Growing up, I always loved going, even when it was only MK, but by the time I was 12 or so, we stopped going as often and the magic was no longer there. But I'm really glad that we where able to take that trip in Xmas of '09, it was an awesome trip that was made perfect by much of the advice I recieved on this board. Thanks guys....
