Unlike the 80's cult movie of similar name (Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure) Patrick and Kate will not be using time travel as their means of moving on to their new home - Cary, North Carolina. They are taking yet another 14 hour 'jaunt' in their cars. After months of planning, multiple trips back and forth to NC, these pioneers are taking the plunge and moving on to new ground.
It seems like yesterday when I told a very pregnant Grace one night that I was not interested in going to work the next day. That next morning we were on our way to Leonard Morse Hospital in Natick see Patrick come into the world. Some 26 years later, through a lot of laughs and tears, school, a few broken bones, a few of life's stumbles, and a fabulous marriage, they are taking yet another step in their lives. As parents, we are terribly sadden to see them leave, but we know in our hearts that this is what they need to do to realize their dream of owning home and raising a family. Thankfully, today's technology will allow us to stay in constant touch and I am sure that we will be making use of some frequent flyer miles (and maybe a few Harley road trips!)
Patrick and Kate - we are so proud of you, your accomplishments and your courage in taking this giant leap. Their is a saying among bikers, "it is not about the destination, but the journey". Have a safe journey.
Love, Dad and Mom

It feels a little weird to be calling this home, but being here is such a big part of our goal, so its satisfying at the same time.
So here we are :) Thanks for the words of encouragement!
