Another New Beginning

Six years after packing our family up and moving from Cincinnati, Ohio to Bangkok, Thailand, my wife and I are moving back to the United States.  This is an end to one adventure, and a start to a completely new one.

In some ways this move will be easier than the move to Thailand, but in other ways much more challenging.  For our children, ages 13, 11 and 8, they are leaving the country where they have lived the majority (except in the case of the oldest) of their lives.  Our new home in Irvine, California is 1,880 miles away from Cincinnati and also different in culture and attitude.

This blog will be a window to our experience, to how we adapt to this new change.  I will contrast life in Thailand and even Cincinnati with our new experiences in Irvine.  Surprisingly, living in Thailand has actually taught me about what it means to be an American, and I will explore that.  I will also write about some of our other travels, past and current.

I will also use the blog to display some of my photography.  Taking photographs not only helped me pass the time in Thailand, but it gave me a purpose to our two year turned to six year journey.
