The Journey Begins

Lao Tzu said:

The journey of a thousand miles begins with but a single step.

On Tuesday, I began a journey that will take me a little over 1600 miles from Denver, Colorado (by air--thank you Thomas Potter). I handed in my notice Tuesday, and in two weeks time--March 2nd to be exact, I will leave my employer for the past eleven years, and begin preparations in earnest for my journey to New York City!

But first, some background: I think it was my old friend Lisa Darin who told me some 25 years ago that visiting New York City would change me. I only wish I had understood then what she had meant. It wasn't until October of 2007 that I managed to visit New York for my first time. And boy, was I hooked! I didn't know it then, nor in April of 2008 when I visited a second time, but the City had put a hold on me that could not be ignored!
