Good Morning fellow EXer's! I realize that many of you have had a stressful weekend! I hope that we all can take a deep breath this morning, and move forward towards Freedom!

In 1999 I moved away from Raleigh, NC because I was unhappy with upcoming changes in tax structure, and I was generally unhappy with way local and state government was being run! In 2003 I moved to Arizona for a better job oportunity! Then to Charleston SC! Then Smithfield NC! And in 2009 to Naples FL! And that one was mosty because of the weather and proximity to cruise ships!

My point is that people move everyday! Like smoking it is a choice! People move for jobs, climate, better opportunity, or to be closer to family! People also move because they are not happy where they are! And, everyone deserves the opportunity to seek happiness! The one thing that stays constant in any move is, that you do not quit on friendships!

This weekend we watched some friends and neighbors pack up and leave our community! It was hard to see them go, just as I am sure that it was hard for them to leave! The good news is they only moved a few clicks away! Many of you have been invited to visit, or even move to their neighborhood! Those of us who do not facebook will not be able to get there! But, just as you are welcome to their neighborhood, everyone is, and always have been, welcome in ours!

The important thing here is that no people are lost, and no friendships are destroyed! And hopefully no one smoked over it! No matter which community you call home, we are all headed to the same place! Freedom!

Live Free my friends! And live well! Now let us go forward,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,and Prosper!!            Tommy
