Doesn’t this video make you want to laugh? And then get up and visit every single part of the planet you can possibly get to before you die?

Phase 1: Steal the Underpants

Tonight is Nicole’s last night in New York.
To pull off this move, we’re doing it in 3 phases.
Phase 1 kicks off tomorrow. We’ll move Nicole, Ben, Abi, my computer, clothes and bedding, toys and entertainment enough for all of them for a month. They’ll be moving into Nicole’s parents place for that month, where Nicole [...]

A Stranger With the Door Key…

So now that Abi is here, the countdown has begun. This is it: the move home is a reality, and it’ll be here fast — just over two weeks, in fact.
Our target date for Nic’s move back with the kids is April 12th — the weekend after that if we have to. She’ll have only [...]

Last Night on the Mass Pike

We loved Boston! We totally should have gone there sooner, and more often. If New York is a big city, Boston is like a huge village. It feels nothing like downtown NYC.
The buildings are an odd mix of modern and classic architecture. The sidewalks are frequently coblestone. The roads are impossible to drive on, because [...]

Live from Foxboro

We had a beautiful afternoon in Boston, despite our limitations. Traveling with a baby always adds to the challenge, and Nic’s limited to a waddle, and I hurt my back on Friday (of course, because I always hurt my back when we go somewhere.) So we didn’t have very ambitious goals going in. We hit [...]

I think we’ll go to Boston

Scratch that last post, cause we have a better plan.
It turns out that Boston is closer to us that New York City is — driving distance, anyway. We’ve never been, though, because every time someone comes to visit they want to go NYC. No one will go to Boston with us, and we haven’t found [...]

Going to Foxborough, Mass!

I know even less about Foxborough than i did Greenbay, before I made that trip, but I’m going there!
My company has 4 offices in the States: Virginia, Albany, Greenbay and Foxborough. I’ve been to all of them but Foxborough.
When I searched for it on Google, I got a bunch of football images, so I’m assuming [...]

Every day I wake I tell myself a little harmless lie:
The whole wide world is mine

Well its done. The last difficult conversation has been had, so I can share our news with you all. This likely won’t come as a surprise — to those who don’t already know. But its big for us, and its been important to approach it as the massive challenge that it is…
We’re moving back to [...]
