Seattle here we come!

June 7, 2008

It’s been brewing for some time, but at some point in July we’ll be moving to Seattle.

We’ve really enjoyed living in SoCal; much more that we’d originally anticipated.  There’s been lots of things to do between LA-proper and San Diego that we’ve had a blast.  So much that it’s difficult to pick any highlights, but I’ve been able to see my favorite bands play live a few times, hang out at famous/well-known places, even been invited to a world premier of a major film!  Not to mention the fantastic weather.

But SoCal isn’t where we feel "home" or really "fit it", so time to give somewhere else a try.  I’ll look forward to exploring our new home city and being part of the tech community up there (so any tips/recommendations/invitations are greatly appreciated).  In the mean-time during the few weeks we have until the moving truck turns up we have to mop up things to do in LA (so once again, if there are any tips/recommendations/etc …). We can’t say we’ve "done it all" as that takes a lifetime our friend Nic always says as she’s graciously been our guide on many an occasion, but we’ve certainly "lived it" and sampled the highlights.  As Baz Luhrmann says, "Live in [Northern] California once, but leave before it makes you soft".

In some ways I’ll miss LA, and will leave you with a fantastic photo from my favorite LA-centric blog.
