State of the Blog

Today we fly from Amsterdam to Chicago to Grand Rapids, Michigan, officially closing the European chapter of our lives. It's tough to leave a place, even tougher to leave without one last glimpse of the place you are leaving. We both wish we were leaving from Durham/Newcastle instead of Amsterdam. We wish we could hear a Geordie accent again, steal a glance at the cathedral, and eat one last chicken bake (yes, Brits, pies have their place). Oh well. We will settle with today being the Big Day we leave Europe more generally and mourn our loss while looking forward to a summer of catching up with our American selves. (Beyond that: TBD.)

So where does that leave The Blog? Without a foreign subject, will it have enough substance to live on? We are hoping to post some favorite photos and stories from the European roadtrip in the next few weeks, interspersed with the funny photos we've gathered. Once that stream of thought has run its course... then who knows!

I like how, in your pictures, your horizons are not so much in the middle anymore.

So, we just realized that you're back in GR!?! When can we have a welcome back meal with you?
