Well, I guess I'll have to cangratulate you since this is what you told me you wanted. But I really hate to see you leave us. We came to know what a great guy you are, and I was hoping to enjoy your kilted company in the future.
What if we call an impromptu kilt night this weekend? You off anytime soon?
BTW, where in Arkansas? I suspect the northwest, Rogers-Fort Smith corridor.

No actually Scot it's down below Little Rock. Southern Arkansas University Tech is the University the Arkansas Fire Academy is run through. It's about 90 miles south of Little Rock. Gonna be a drive for a while until I get the house sold but no biggie. Unfortunately I won't be able to take you up on the kilted night out. the only reason is time is of the essence and we can't spend any not packing and preparing. But I do appreciate the offer and your comments. I enjoyed you and your wifes company as well and we had a few laughs on top of it. Thank you and God Bless

Well, my wife informed me today that since you are moving there, we really need to visit Arkansas this summer anyway, and since you'll be there . . . But Camden? do they still have that really swell paper mill there? Ha.
Actually, it's a really great little town with some money and progressive thinking--or at least it used to be. I'm sure you'll love it there. There are few things better than teaching, so you'll have a great job, too.
My aunt and a cousin still live in the North Little Rock area, so we won't be far away from you when we come to visit.

Good luck with the move. Hopefully you won't find yourself "jonesing" for a ride on the back-step too much. As for me; I'll keep riding the back-step. The old timers can keep the academy.
Don't forget the instructors motto: "let no man's ghost come back to say, 'my training let me down.'"

Well I think that paper mill is closed now. I won't be living there..just teaching there. It's actually 10 miles east of Camden so it's actually closer to East Camden. Anyway, I would love to have a visit, that'd be swell. We will actually be living just outside of Little Rock on the Southwest side in Otter Creek for the first bit (until we sell the house here in GA) then we'll move a little closer to the job. So yeah if you come within 6 months or so, we'll more than likely still be Otter Creek, so we'll be even closer than you thought.
