Farewell Concert Tour

This is post is coming live to you aboard Virgin America flight 409 from JFK TO LAX.

Well it's been a whirlwind couple of weeks. The farewell concert tour continues....

First stop was Denver. I got to see my Red Sox beat the Rockies in a very exciting back and forth game. Kristi and Chris showed me a great time in Denver. NYC's loss is Denver's gain. So happy for them as they start their new life together.

Next came Florida to hang with the parental units. Words cannot describe how much I am going to miss them. I could not ask for more loving and supportive people in my life. I will be grateful till the end of time for the love, courage and strength they have given me. My mom and her friends had a little Island party for me complete with sarongs for everyone. Even Dad played the part. Pictures to come.

The journey continued to Columbus to hang out with my favorite kiddies. What joy and love they have in their hearts. Nothing beats having a little one give you a big hug and say that they've missed you. It breaks my heart that I will not be able to see them for a year. But I cannot wait to hear all the stories as the girls enter 1st grade and how Caleb continues to be the little pistol that he is.

Back to NYC to say goodbye to all of the wonderful people that the city has brought into my life since I first came in the fall of 2001. What amazing people I have had the pleasure of meeting over the years. Each and every one of you have touched me in a different way. You are my family now. I will love and miss you dearly.

And for my last night in NYC, I had the pleasure of seeing Miss Lady Gaga in concert. Amazing. Great way to go out! Thank you to Brett for making it happen.

Now I'm on my way to LA now for a couple days of fun and sun.

More posts to come as I navigate this emotional roller-coaster that is my life. A big big shout out to my Mom, Dad and brother Michael. I could not do this without you.

P.S. I'm still trying to figure out how to use this blogspot thing so cut me some slack in these first couple of posts.
