So it begins.

We've accepted an offer on our condo, Torrey accepted a job offer to start when we get back from Europe, and everything is starting to happen very quickly! We just have to complete the condo sale, sell our Jeep, move our stuff to storage, plan the trip, buy tickets, make reservations, figure out phones and ATM cards and Internet access and buses and trains and ... by the end of the month.

But a few things at least can be crossed off the list: We now have a blog, and I'm posting to it from the little Thinkpad we're going to carry with us, using a free WiFi connection.
