June 28, 201313 yr For good or for a visit? To paraphrase Al of sorts. Roundtrip booking or one way? You implied singular booking meaning OW. One way baby!!! I'm moving to Sacramento! I've wanted to move out of Texas since, well since about a week after moving to Texas. It only took 12 years, but things have happened that have helped to push me in that direction. I'm excited! I won't be a true Bay Area guy, but I imagine Al, Ric, Steve and others will open the gate and let me through once in a while. I'm also trying to tag other changes onto this one, i.e. healthier eating, better and more exercise (impossible to ride a bike safely here), building a better social life (I have really missed throwing dinner parties), etc...

Congrats on the pending move.... very exciting! I've wanted to live in/near the Bay area since the first time I visited... so jealous.
June 28, 201313 yr Excellent news, Steve. Mike, I'm sure it was a tough trip but a proud one as well.
June 28, 201313 yr Excellent news, Steve. Mike, I'm sure it was a tough trip but a proud one as well. It was both. Watching him walk into the terminal with the green Army duffel on his back was not easy. On the bright side, they didn't charge him $25 for the checking it.
June 28, 201313 yr Congrats Steve, sounds like things are really snapping into place well! And Mike, echo what Nate said. We can all share a little bit of your pride!
June 28, 201313 yr Thanks all. He has not committed yet. This is the first two years of ROTC in 30 days. It's pretty intense. He has to decide before his junior year (end of summer) if he is going to continue which I think includes a 4 year commitment.
June 28, 201313 yr Cool stuff, Steve. The gate to Mayberry or door to SF will always be open for you, but I'm afraid I cannot let you through other openings (and I mean afraid). Thanks all. He has not committed yet. This is the first two years of ROTC in 30 days. It's pretty intense. He has to decide before his junior year (end of summer) if he is going to continue which I think includes a 4 year commitment. That is both impressive and frightening, Mike. I'm not against the service, but I hope he ultimately chooses a different path. That would make me nervous as hell as a parent. Edited June 28, 201313 yr by Voltron
June 28, 201313 yr Congrats again, Steve. Though I'm afraid that Sacramento will remind you a bit of Texas. Still, your social life should take a big step up. Congrats also to you, Mike.
June 28, 201313 yr Thanks all! Brent, you and everyone else here are invited to the first dinner party! it may be a long drive home though. at Al ! Mike, I hope everything works out for the best. Ken, Texas isn't the problem. Parts of Texas are awesome. The Corpus Christi Bay area isn't one of them.
June 28, 201313 yr Steve, it's like they knew you were coming https://www.facebook.com/SacramentoBaconFest https://www.facebook.com/events/308390039295325 http://www.wherevent.com/detail/Sacramento-Bacon-Fest-Beer-Bacon-on-the-Boulevard http://baconandbuttersac.com/ http://www.yelp.com/biz/bacon-and-butter-sacramento

June 29, 201313 yr Great news, Steve! Mike, it's interesting how your kids are going in such different and yet equally positive and exciting directions. You must be proud!
June 29, 201313 yr Steve, Debbie and I are penciling ourselves in for a future dinner party. We believe you would be one hell of a host. Mike, figuring that your son has learned well from his father, I'm sure he'll make good decisions regarding his future.
