Introductions

I'm Donabelle I just started traveling last March. I am from Jacksonville, FL and I took my first assignment here Cape Coral, extended for another 13 weeks. I love this so far! I'd stay here in FL for now but I do want to go to CA and TX, and of course Hawaii! I am married my husband goes w/ me of course, no kids yet, planning to have one in 2009 and my husband will be a stay at home dad while we are traveling

We plan on traveling until we have a school age kid or will probably home school.

Hey there Donnabelle - Nice to meet you - I agree - I want to go all over the place too!!

Hi Donna, Drew, and Donnabell!!!

Nice to meet all of you too!

Hi!

New hopeful travelers via RV here. Gary and I are ready to go after the first of the year!

New traveler too. In my second assignment. I'm an OR RN and travel with my fifthwheel toyhauler, Harley, and 4wheeler. I'm long time Alaskan and just started being a snowbird. I've worked in WA, CA, and ND but not as traveler. New Mexico is the only place I've had a travel assignment outside of Alaska.

My Alaskan Home:

Nice to meet everyone but I notice that this group is predominantly east coast. Anyone coming out west?

Doug, I am going to Seattle in mid-September and then after that, I am not sure!

Diary, I'll be going through Seattle the third week of October. I've got a few friends there if you're interested in meeting them or if you'd like to meet at one of my (or your) favorite resturants, let me know. In the 90's I got out of nursing and became a software engineer for 6 years. Worked in the Seattle area for 7 years (1 1/2 as an RN). Had a great time, which started with a divorce....

BTW I've only got 3 weeks and for nights left in this crummy job!! I will never work nights again!! But I'd bet you work plenty of em?

Doug

That would be great Doug, I have been looking for some people to hang out with up there and have not had any success here yet. Let me know where the best places to eat up there are too!! I looked some up on Yahoo.

Nights are good for me, fewer people around. I am a bit tired right now. I thnk my bady is rejecting nights anymore....Oh well!

Diary, there's a Thai place down on Lake Union that's built in a railroad car. This the first place I had Thai and few since have compared. Then there's this dingy looking Vietnamese place on the north side of the Aurora Bridge that has great food. But then theres the International district that is full of great asian places. They're all good, but then there are the steak houses like the downtown Metropolitan or Union Square grills. I could go on but I'm sure you get the point, Seattle is loaded with great restaurants, as are Redmond, Bellevue and Kirkland.

If this isn't enough for you, don't forget to explore Vancouver, BC which is only 90 miles away. There are twice as many people there as Seattle and they too have great entertainment. Just don't forget your passport. I'm getting envious thinking about being in that area.

More later,

Doug
