Of course once we are all set up we can just fly back and forth, but the first year we'll probably drive down and leave a car there.

We've got NOTHING but a busy year ahead of us trying to figure all of this out, not to mention the downsizing of stuff we want to continue with up here. So much can change in that time too......I'm a planner, but if I've learned NOTHING else, it is to hold those plans loosely.
