Cindy and I are now both joined at the YMCA nearby, which let’s us run and swim to train for an upcoming trident challenge at Jax Beach on 6/9.

Event includes a 5k run, 500 meter ocean swim and 1.5k surfboard paddle.  Looking forward to it!

1 down, 1 to go.  Today I officially resigned from my job at St. Vincent’s Medical Center.  Not the first time I’ve done so throughout my career, but that doesn’t make it any easier.  My last day is June 8th.  I’m going to miss working with such an amazing group of dietitians!  But, I’m getting super pumped about our upcoming adventure!  I can’t believe it’s almost here!  Next up, my resignation from North Florida Surgeons- stay tuned…

Good times wine tasting, playing golf, sightseeing at bodega bay, fishermans wharf, muir woods, amstrong woods.  Off to dinner with the group for our last night.  Headed back to jax early on saturday morning.

Sales of our stuff is moving along well on Craigslist.  Amazing how much stuff we accumulated over 11 years in the working world.

Sold the Jetta last month, so just down to the Tacoma now.  Next big item to sell is the Yamaha wave runner.

Solidifying the first few months of travel:

• Looks like cape coral, cocoa beach and crescent beach for July and August.  Maybe throw in a surf trip to Nicaragua with ryan and a road trip to the Osh kosh air show with the swains.
• Next up is two months in the Florida Keys for September and October for lobster season.  Anyone want to join us in the Keys for a week or two?

Had the resignation conversation at work a week ago with my boss.  Decided on May 31st as my last day at CSX.  That’ll let me spend the month of June finalizing plans, packing and selling stuff before our lease is up at the end of June in Jacksonville.

Plan on spending time with family and friends as we travel, so send along any info so we can add you to the list for our road trips.

For those that would like to follow along on our travels in 2012, this is the place!
