goodbye ventura

media gallery / 2003 / goodbye ventura

on saturday june 9th we finally left ventura - our home for the past 2 years and toby’s birthplace. in our usual fashion we did a 23hr drive straight through to vancouver, stopping only for meals and gas. it hit me that we were moving to canada about an hour into the journey. it didn’t hit me until a couple of days later that we’d really left ventura, some of the best friends i’d ever made and kellie & kenny.

what we’ll miss:

  • kellie & kenny
  • the moms club
  • scrapbooking with good friends
  • year round golf
  • our cars
  • beaches
  • chuck e cheese

what we won’t:

  • earthquake threat [although vancouver is by no means free of that]
  • black widows
  • terrible traffic lights
  • hopeless news coverage
