An early post back in December I wrote about choosing a place to live based on how pretty the closest bridge was. I will say we will not be going to any of the bridges I showed early instead we will be moving near this bridge . . .
Can you guess where this BRIDGE is located?

Just in case you need a few Hints!!!
1. This bridge was opened to public: May 24, 1883 at 2:00 PM. A total of 150,300 people crossed opening day. People charged 1 cent to cross.
2. This city was the U.S. capital from 1789 to 1790.
3. People travel an average of 40 minutes to work each day.
4. Banks in this city contain vaults that are located 80 feet beneath the bank and hold about 25 percent of the world's gold bullion.
5.The Subway system runs in this city has 26 routes with 6,200 subway cars that stop at 468 different subway stations.
6. The 2008 Census Reported 19,490,297 people who live there.
ARE YOU GETTING CLOSE?
7. The state has 98 Nicknames, some of the most popular names include, "The Big Apple," "The Empire City" & "The Melting Pot" to see a list of all of them click here.
WELL YOU GUESSED IT
This is the Brooklyn Bridge
I'M MOVING TO NEW YORK.
More Specifically . .
Long Island, NY
From Jon's Hospital it takes 1 hour to get to Manhattan.
Jon's Hospital is on a Pennisula on the Long Island imagine looking out of the window and seeing the beach.
Okay let's get to the real story. Before Jon started medical school I told him I don't care what kind of doctor you are as long as you are not a surgeon. I don't want to be a surgeons wife. Later down the road probably a year ago I told Jon I don't care where we live as long as we don't live in NY.
Well I'm totally getting everything I didn't want.
A husband who's becoming a surgeon and moving to NY.
His plans are to become a surgical oncologist.
Jon starts work July 1st. He has orientation a week before that. Our plans are moving out there the first week of June go swimming on the beach and seeing NYC for the first time.
WE CAN'T WAIT!
HERE'S HOW WE CELEBRATED!
The day we found out Jon and I headed down to the strip to NEW YORK, NEW YORK Hotel. Plans were to ride the roller coaster but that night there were high winds to 36 mph, so unfortunelty it was closed, so we ate dinner at Nathans. We ordered each a yummy HOT DOG with chili cheese fries afterwards we enjoyed playing video games at "Coney Island" Coney Island is 20 minutes from Jon's Hospital.

side note: Kailtyn asked me the other day what the girls name was that would play with her at our apartment. It was weird that she remembered Alix. Fun times! She asked if she could play with her again. Looks like it might be later not sooner since you are moving way East.
