  • I'm moving to Santa Clara, California . . . .

    I have been seeing someone long distance for more than eight months. His name is Neal, he's a successful business owner, has wonderful friends, and is fifty-four years old. And . . . . we are in love with one another.

    We have been together in-person twice; first time out here in eastern Iowa, and second time very recently, when I flew out for several days to Santa Clara/San Jose. When he was out here in eastern Iowa, some of my family and friends met him, and they all support us being together.

    I plan to drive cross-country in mid-October to move out to Santa Clara, where Neal lives. I'm hoping the Rockies won't have any snow or ice during my trip. I plan to stay overnight at Cheyenne, Wyoming and then at Salt Lake City, Utah.

    I am very much excited about this change in my life.

        we are in love with one another.
        Exactly. Love dosn't = Gay! They could be in love like a priest might 'love' an alter boy or a John Travolta might 'love' a male masseur.

        Congrats & good luck, btw.
        There's nothing wrong with the dream, my friend, the problem lies with the dreamer.

          With or without religion, you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion.

                No problem. I'm way more curious about Al's answer

                        Be SURE to leave Cheyenne with a full gas tank. There's nothing between Cheyenne and SLC. I take that back, there are antelope and interesting piles of rocks.
                        Watch out for the antelope darting across the highway. Snow is a possibility.

                            Good luck, MrFun.

                            And yeah, I totally nailed it with my daddy issue diagnosis.

                            I've also nailed BK and Alby with my comments about them. Good on you for embracing it. You're farther in life and happier than either of them because of it.

                              Does this mean the midwest will get rain again while California experiences a drought?
