In The Beginning....

....Two left leaning southerners found each other. We courted, finished school, got married, and then took the biggest step of all, we bought a dog together. Now we are moving across the country, site unseen, to Portland, Oregon. I'll be attending law school and Dawn will work to support us, as well as learning to fit in by taking up knitting and drinking coffee. The idea behind this blog is to pay tribute to the place we have lived and loved for the past six years and document our move to our new home. We hope to write about food and the places we love to eat, about our outdoor adventures and how they could have gone better, and in general what we're doing day to day, mostly for our parents. We won't always post together so we'll try to let you know who you're hearing from and we'll see how this goes.
