Yesterday was a sad day. It was the day Will moved out of the apartment above us. We moved into this apartment because Will owned the house and he lived upstairs. And there was no lease to sign. It was all supposed to be temporary. The months turned to years and suddenly it's been 3 years of having Will upstairs whenever he was in town or not working. It was perfect: Will worked 10 or so days on, working all night long, then would have around 10 days off where he'd hang around with us some and some up in Steamboat with Chris. So, we essentially had a second apartment upstairs that was mostly empty and functioned as our guest apt. When it wasn't vacant, we had Will around to hang out with. Now, that is over and we have nowhere to go borrow milk or have our visiting friends stay. And the worst part: there's no Will. He's been one of Mere and I's best friends for as long as I remember having good friends, and we're both very sad to say good bye. The best part, tho, is that he's following his dreams and moving to Hawaii in a few days. I know we'll be visiting him there and loving his new location, but we're selfishly sad he won't be hanging around us as much. I'd wish him good luck, but I don't think he needs luck, I just know he'll be sucessful wherever he ends up.

Here's to Will...a great friend for life for you two (and also, especially, for Kaya-girl). The rest of us consider Will a part of the family and wish him the very best of all things in the future.
Bon Voyage, W & C! We hope to swing through for a visit as well. Gonna be sweet!
Will and Chris...wishing you the best. I am (selfishly for Andy and Mere) sad you are leaving...but excited for you to follow your dreams. As Dut said, you will always be a part of the family and we wish you the best! Take good care...
