We are well into the process of planning a move from our longtime home in Arizona to my childhood home of the Quad Cities(Western Iowa, Eastern Illinois) most likely in April/May of next year. I thought I’d come up with a convenient list of the top ten reasons to move and the top ten reasons while moving will be a bummer.
Top 10 Reasons to Move:
1. There are no construction jobs in Phoenix.
2. The majority of my family live there.
3. Seasons.
4. Really good food like Harris Pizza, Jim’s Ribs, Maid-Rite, & the Iowa Machine Shed.
5. Hunting with my brothers.
6. Great ministry opportunities.
7. Affordable living.
8. My Mom can babysit.
9. August days don’t have a high of 115.
10. Fall is an amazing time of year in the Mississippi River Valley.
Top 10 Reasons it will be a bummer to move:
1. We will miss all our great
friends at Camelback
Bible and Praxis(now Redemption Church).
2. It’s nice to wear shorts in December.
3. Most of Susan’s family is here.
4. You can’t get really good Mexican food in the midwest. Check out Ajo Al’s.
5. All our great friends at our Sunday hang out Over Easy.
6. We are a 6 hour car ride from Disneyland.
7. Arizona State Football
8. Susan has lived here her whole life and I’ve lived here for almost 25 years.
9. Driving in the snow is no fun.
10. Hanging out with Uncle Kenny & Aunt Eva at their cabin in Mund’s Park.
