Fresh Start

·

It would be tough to know this since I haven't posted much about it here. But my family and I moved to Boston yesterday/today. Not only did we want to be closer to my wife's family, but I needed some fresh career opportunities as well. As much as I enjoyed my 4 years in Buffalo I always knew that it wouldn't be where I settled. As of right now I can't say that Boston will be either, but for the first time in my life I feel like I'm settled. I'm excited to explore this city and raise our daughter here. I'm happy that she will grow up near her grandparents like I did.

I'm pretty excited to start my new job next week. I will be working at a very large research hospital that I probably shouldn't name but I will say that its right next to Harvard Medical School(for those that are familiar with the area). I hope my foot in the door there will lead to bigger and better things.

I will miss many things about Buffalo. My life's biggest milestones happened there. Pretty strange considering I didn't live there between the ages of 3 months and 28 years. I met some great people that I will miss, and am happy that I took the most important ones with me.

    Ya, good luck. Boston sounds like it would be such a fun city and so much closer to fresh seafood.

    I have never been to Boston So I can't say but I've heard it is a great city... It being a city means you get all that great city stuff and events and concerts come there.... On a side note you also just got an upgrade in sports teams (mostly) and can go see Major league teams with out traveling..... I'm a sports go so.... Even if you don't like said team you can go for whom they play.......
