Relocation

It has come to my attention that I've not formally announced our recent relocation. So: we've formally relocated. All phone numbers are the same as they have been (all that virtual stuff, you know), so there's no need to update those for the time being. The new physical location is 4266 Spring Creek Lane, Bellingham, WA 98226. If you google it you'll see an empty lot. If you bing it, you'll see the same empty lot, but better views (I particularly like the bird's eye view). The lot isn't empty anymore.

According to bing (and a couple of other sources):

• we're 92 miles from the Roger and Cathie household, 94 miles from Safeco Field (though I'm not going unless they start winning....sheesh....), and 105 miles to SeaTac airport
• we're 938 miles from Heather and Christopher's place, and 1344 miles from Jamie and Jeff''s place
• we're 23 miles from the Canadian border at Blaine, WA, though we have four border crossings to choose from that are all about the same distance from us
• we're 52 miles from Vancouver, British Columbia (yes, we're much closer to Vancouver than we are Seattle). We're 95 miles from Victoria, BC, though it involves going either north or south and taking ferries; it's only 43 miles south-west from here to Victoria as the crow flies (we are indeed north of Victoria)
• we're 6.5 miles from Western Washington University where Sam will be going in the fall, 4 miles from Squalicum High School where J'Neil will be going, and 1.4 miles from Whatcom Community College that both Sam and J'Neil will be attending at different times over the next few years
• for those Twilight fans out there: we're 178 miles from Forks, WA
• we're 710 miles from Kathy and Craig's place in Edmonton - (it looks like it would be a very cool drive up through Kamloops and Jasper), and 697 miles to Brent and Jodi's place in Lethbridge
• there are lots of routes to the homestead in Cardston, ranging from 719 miles of freeway driving in the states to 676 miles through winding mountain passes in the states to 687 miles through winding-er mountain-er passes in Canada.
• we're 311 miles from our house in Kennewick, 394 miles from our house in Clarkston, 1233 miles from our house in Las Vegas and 940 miles from our house in Sandy
• we're 823 miles from Stone, Idaho, where we last left our exciting family history stories and it’s 4669 miles from here to Horsley in Gloucester, UK where Henry Cottle (my great-great-great grandfather) is originally from
• and finally, we're 2731 miles from Hanalei, Hawaii
