I love Vegas, but.... I am moving back east

So here's the deal.  I still love Vegas and had absolutely no intention of moving back to the east coast at this time, but I was offered a really terrific position with Gannett's Digital Division (Gannett owns USA TODAY where I work now), and it is an opportunity I just couldn't pass it up.

Hoping to be back in the DC area by the 1st of the year.  Of course everyone knows selling my Vegas condo right now is not happening, and renting could take a while. Otherwise, I will be making the trek back as soon as I can.

If you planned to come to Vegas to visit, you better hurry and make your reservations. 

For all my Vegas friends on here, you know I will be back, often, and now I will have plenty of friend's houses to stay at when I vacation in sin city!

That's the news... carry on!

  4. Oh wow, congrats on the job! If you have any interest in buying a really cute townhouse right on the orange line (va square) and easy walk to Clarendon and Ballston, give a holler :-)

  5. Thanks. I think I am looking at Reston, but if I can't rent out my Vegas condo, probably won't be buying anything in VA right now... stupid economy.

  7. I wish. I'd love to get a bigger place, not a townhouse. And I think my place would sell ok, even today (maybe wishful thinking, who knows). But there's no way I'd ever be able to get it in order/un-cluttered/no dog hair to put it on the market. With dog, baby, slob (me) - it'd be impossible. So I'm sort of hoping someone magically appears, wanting to buy it :-)

  15. My uncle lives in DC. Please tell him I said "hi." He can probably get you theater tickets. He knows a guy. And, yes, I mean that in a Biblical sense.
