Indy here we come! (Eventually)

It appears that Gene's transfer to the Indianapolis Airport Tower is going through and were tentatively scheduled to start living in Indy in Jan 2009. Which seems like forever until you realize that it is a year and a half from now. The reason it is tentative is the fact that we'll get a more firm date around the holidays of this year after Champaign tower reviews its staffing after a bunch of people have transferred out and some newbies have transferred in. We actually may be living in Indy towards the end of next summer but nothing can be promised.

Gene got the job offer on Thursday, we talked about it over the weekend, he accepted the job on Monday morning, and within hours we had a tentative release date. I expected the release date to take a month but it looks like Gene's got a great manager and set of supervisors which try to do their best to do right by the folks in the tower. I'll definitely miss seeing everyone in Champaign but part of me is excited by the idea of having more job options than just U of I. Which honestly is probably just the difference between the devil you know and the devil you don't know. :)

Hawaii Pictures

I finally got off my bottom and uploaded our Hawaii pictures to Picasa. Hope you enjoy them! This was from our trip from late Feb to early March of this year with Gene's family.
