What do you mean no more back yard and squirrels?

So today I found out that we are moving.....away from the sun, away from the ocean and away from my wonderful back yard.....to DC!  When?  Soon....  Why?  "work stuff".  Things I'll miss; running in the ocean at Carmel Bay, lazy Sunday's when my roomies enjoy wine and cheese w/our new friends Will & Ina, getting some solid weekend nap time in while my roomies go to Cha Cha Cha's (I'm pretty sure I need to try this Chicken Pillard and Sangria some day), riding in the car across Golden Gate Bridge, walking around the Palace of Fine Arts, and all our fun visitors.  DC will be fun, we'll be there for a presidential election (better get out my ball gown) and the 4th should be great (hear the view from the Lincoln Memorial is the best!) and our friends Alison & Jamie are already there scoping out fun places to visit (does VA have a wine country?).  I'll miss the weather but the new adventure is going to be great.  I'm told we are driving across country and hitting up Santa Barbara and Charleston on our way to DC!  Can't wait.  When we get to DC I'll have one roomie around for a bit to go for long walks w/daily until she finds a job and I'm told at first we'll live in a tiny studio apartment but we are going to try to find a home in "the city" this time.....not sure how I feel about not having a huge yard to chase all the evil squirrels from, but looking forward to walks....lots and lots of walks! 

Well for now, I'm off to take another nap b/c I need to save my energy for when the roomies get home b/c they are stuck watching a tiny TV b/c the “good one” broke 2 days ago…I’m pretty sure they’d rather walk me then squint at the tiny TV anyways!
