Moving to "the Ghetto!"

That's right! We are making the move to Albany, and not only that...to the Ghetto in Albany! It's ok, we have a 110 lb dog. We gave our 30 day notice where we are in S Salem almost 3 weeks ago. Our home search has ended in a choice between a small appartment in down town Albany with a fenced yard, quiet neighborhood, about 200 sq feet smaller then where we are now.... Or a duplex in the ghetto. The duplex is about 100 sq feet or more larger then our current appartment, is in a duplex community with a pool, park area, playground...no fenced yard. Anyway, we are trying to get one in the back corner. Thad called it the ghetto because there were a bunch of kids playing basketball in the street. So...the living room is the size of our living and dining room combined. The master bedroom has walk in closet, the kitchen is bigger (which is sad since the kitchen is still pretty small). I'm actually excited about the move. There is a teen from our youth group who lives in the same community and rides his bike about an hour every week for youth group. His family is not saved and do not attend church. We will be able to offer him rides and make more of a connection with him. Anyway...now that you have read all this about our new home, moving day is going to be Next Saturday the 22nd if anyone feels like helping.
