Welcome y'all!

Welcome! The idea of keeping a blog about our transition to a new life in Music City was something that we have discussed for weeks, so we're excited to finally be able to cross this off our 'to-do' list and share our experiences with all of you!

After spending 30+ years of our lives in the New York metro area, we decided that it was time for a change... of scenery, lifestyle, cost of living, and, of course, daily adventures. So we packed our bags, sold our house, scooped up Plinko the Cat and bid a bittersweet farewell to life as we knew it on Long Island. Next stop on our adventure... Nashville, Tennessee! As everyone knew, Music City had become a place near and dear to our hearts (and wallets) over the past few years after investing in a fabulous condo in a historic downtown building in March 2006. With our furnished digs at the Bennie Dillon anxiously awaiting our full-time arrival (after many quick weekend visits in 2006) and a great marketing opportunity at Vanderbilt ready for Jeff, the relocation decision became a much easier one for us to consider and follow through on.

The mere thought of such a drastic life change struck many people by surprise (how many "Nashville? Why Nashville?" reactions do you think we got?), but the support of our family and friends was incredible and made us realize how lucky we are to have so many special people in our lives! Alright, enough of the intro -- most of you know why we moved and what we hope to get out of this relocation decision. Now it's time to share our Nashville experiences with you and hopefully create a fun platform to stay better connected with y'all! :)

Until next time ...
