Starting a New Life in Minneapolis

As some of you know, I have accepted a position for a company in Minneapolis MN. Aside from the normal challenges of work, I also have committed to being on site for two years starting in August. This puts a lot of things into perspective as we start he process of moving a family across the country. There are things we really don’t need, or want to carry into this new part of our lives.
