Abby, a.k.a. Dr. Lady Cutie Troublemaker, is making lists of things to do before she moves.

Tim of Boston Crazy Driving is also heading south on I-95 - and changing careers from journalism to teaching:

... The reasons are many and are similar to all the others who have moved out of state in recent years. We (my wife and I) are tired of the high cost of living that continues to increase beyond the pace of our wage increases. Although we are both hardy New Englanders, having grown up together in the same town south of Boston, we are also tired of the winters.

I would also be remiss if I didn't mention a few things about driving in this post. We are tired of rude drivers; of rutted roads; $15 billion killer tunnels; the fact that it will cost us $3,600 to insure two cars in Boston this year; and, yes, the traffic.

I'm sure we won't find relief in NC from all that plagues us here, but it's a pretty safe bet we will be relieved from ones we are frustrated by the most. ...

Good-bye to you both, you were part of what made the Boston blogging scene so interesting!
