So I mentioned a few weeks back that Mac and I will be moving to Augusta this summer. After that, we really don’t have a set destination. But we have created a short list of places we would like to go if Mac could get a job there.
Augusta

Pros: only moving once this year, reasonably close to our friends and family, THE SOUTH
Cons: apparently, Augusta around The Masters is cah-razy. My godfather, former number 2 in the Georgia penal system, tells me that Augusta has one of the most dangerous ZIP codes in the state. Charming.
Savannah

Pros: Savannah is a really nice city, lots of restaurants and nightlife, home of Paula Deen’s restaurant
Cons: also has dangerous areas, Fort Stewart is technically in Hinesville, a not-so-nice town
Germany

Pros: Umm, living in Europe. Weekend jaunts to different countries and cities. New cultures, new food, being able to make use of the five non-English languages I can speak. Proximity to London. Might as well live overseas before we have kids.
Cons: Europe is, how do we say, not close to our friends and family. While most of them would visit, it would be even less frequent than now. Also the dollar-Euro exchange rate is nicht so gut, so it would be a tad pricey.
Colorado

Pros: where I consider my home, going to Broncos games, epic roadtrips to parks and mountains and beautiful scenery, closer than Germany
Cons: still far away, not convenient for Tech home games, very dry air, everything I’m allergic to (seriously, every single thing) is only found out west and in Colorado
Seattle

Pros: close to Hawaii, Alaska, and Vegas (the three states I have yet to visit), lots of outdoorsy things to do, college football starts at 9 am local time
Cons: I like neither Starbucks nor rain, a general lack of summer, in between Colorado and Germany in distance
If you could move anywhere, where would you go?
