Moving To China, 2007

Diana and I left Denver, Colorado a bit early and flew off to LA so that I could attend DrupalCampLA. The only person I knew at DrupalCampLA was Crystal, the camp organizer. I wanted to attend because this was the first DrupalCamp in Los Angeles and I'm constantly amazed at how quickly Drupal has grown and, more importantly, how strong the community around Drupal is.

After spending a day at Joshua Tree and another day/night in Big Bear Diana and I headed back to the great city of Los Angeles via the scenic route. This winding road is called "The Rim of the world". I can only assume its named that because L.A believed that they were/are the edge of the world because really.. what's beyond L.A? hhmm. San Diego, Mexico, Central America, South America.... Ok just a few things.

Diana and I are heading out for LA in about two hours. We'll be spending the next few weeks in California meeting friends and visiting my Grandmother. Then we leave for Hong Kong on the 26th. Today marks exactly three weeks before we move to China! Oooh I'm excited I can't wait.

Over Labor day weekend Tony, Deb, Diana and I went up to Mt. Evans in Denver, Colorado to do some hiking. On Sunday morning we drove as close as we could to basecamp which was still about 3 miles away and a few thousand feet below. We hiked up and into the Colorado woods quite literally. After setting up camp, building a nice fire and getting a good nights sleep we decided to do some more hiking. This time we opted to just go up a "little" hill next to our campsite.

A week ago Diana and I left Florida after spending two weeks visiting my family. She and I are moving to China so I'm not exactly sure when I'm going to see my parents and family again although I don't think it will be too long. We said our goodbyes and wished each other well but I, unfortunately, didn't film any of it. Instead I filmed me saying goodbye to all of the material objects left behind. My guitars, the pool, the house and Jake (but he's not a material object).
