Since the last blog was written May 2008, Roz and I have been busy.  I applied for a position as the Executive Director of JFSA in Vacnouver and was offered the position in late October, 2008.  I started on March 23, 2009 after a long period of negotiation, due diligence and review of all issues, such as social security, medical, etc.  We drove across country from Cincinnati to Vancouver in six days and had a fabulous transition from the USA to Canada.  On the road we had some super experiences.  We visited Mt. Rushmore, stayed at a historic hotel in Buffalo, Wyoming called the Occidental, visited the Badlands National Park and took a wonderful loop drive to Phillipsburg, Montana and had lunch at a hot sauce specialty restaurant. We sold our house in Cincinnati in 10 days, we were so fortunate to have done so.  Instead of Roz and I having to live apart and commute for many months we were able to move up to Vancouver on April 26th.
