Kentucky, here we come!

Well, we had another trip to a job interview last Tuesday, this time to Kentucky. I already knew that I liked Kentucky a whole lot better than Kansas (having been there many times over the past couple of decades.) But I had never been to Georgetown. Turns out it was exactly what we were looking for!

Brian's interview on Wednesday went very well. Derek and I played in a park while Brian was occupied. The town looks very much like downtown Howell, with an historic Courthouse and Victorian shop fronts. It all looks very prosperous and well-maintained.
Land prices never saw a boom in this area of Kentucky, despite the healthy economy there. Housing remains affordable for middle class people. There is even a chance of us being able to get a small farm so that I can keep Kai at home.
Anyway, Brian had taken a leap of faith in turning down the generous offer that the firm in Kansas City had made. Just a few days later, he received a comparable offer from Georgetown. So we are all very happy to be moving to an area that we actually like.
Georgetown even has a Festival of the Horse every year. How could it get any better?
