So, one load has been taken out.
It wasn't a very big on, mostly books, a couple of bookshelves.
My sister and brother-in-law are coming up at the end of the week to haul stuff out. Pretty much all my furniture.
I'll have one load left.

I realized coming back into town today that it would be my last time driving into Logan as citizen.
The next time I leave, it'll be the end of it.
I'll be back.
But I won't be a resident, just a visitor.

The move out there is depressing, but good.
I'm leaving a lot of folks behind.
But it's a good thing.
More money. IN fact, I may have a job lined up, at least I'm putting in for one, sending the application off this week.
A little more creative enviroment. Logan has really sucked it out of me creatively. I could blame just the place, but there's a lot of things. Moving will help alleviate most of them.

Roosevelt is different though. The mind set is different. The people are different. It's amazing that only 4 hours away is a different perspective on the world: one that's not wholey shared by those in Salt Lake, nor those across the state line in Colorado.
I'd dare say that Roosevelt, and Vernal have more in common with the mindset of Wyoming than Utah.

Strange, JayC and I may have more in common than we thought.

Not all of us out here in the sticks are the same you know. Look me up when you're here, I'll be happy to show you that individuals still exist.

Oh I know Sandman. I know.

There are a variety of people every where.
There will be contact made though.
You're the first one I plan to contact actually.

Keep posting and staying in touch, Frank. You're a class person and I'll miss you a lot. But, like you said, you promise to visit. Let me know when you do.

Actually, if things go the way I hope they do, I'll be moving myself pretty soon. I would love, love, LOVE a teaching job in a city. I'll keep you informed.

(hey - the word verification jumble of letter that came up to send this comment on sounds like 'ditty fucks'. It's not spelled that way but that's how it sounds out. Always a laugh when you're around, Frank.)
