Moving to Salt Lake City

Well - for those of you that heard on the rumour mill that I might be moving jobs - its all true. The firm have offered me a new role out in the USA - in Utah, Salt Lake City - and I snapped it up. Myself and the wife along with our two kids and three cats will be moving out there sometime around June time this year. There is no end date to the role - so if we like it - we will quite probably stay there for good.

Its a massive move for us - but it is one of those rare opportunities - quite possibly a once in a lifetime chance - and we felt that it was the right thing to do for both us and the kids.

Everyone is excited - although it is obviously a little stressful - my list of things to do grows by the day and not many of them are getting crossed off yet!

To all my friends and family that we are leaving behind - we love you all - and in no way does this reflect on you. We will miss you all and you are more than welcome to come and visit once we have settled in - I should expect that we will have plenty of room. To all my US based friends - well - snowboarding/skiing trips just got a little cheeper for you all!!! No hotel to pay for now - so please pop over and see us when we are in - especially during the winter season!!!

None of us are looking forward to all the organising and packing - but we both hope it will be worth it.

I am looking forward to be able to go running in the mountains and all the bike trails that span Utah - some of the best tracks in the world lie within that state - so it should be great fun.

Mark & Kerys.
