Mark was offered a position at Gehl Company out of West Bend, Wisconsin.  Yes, that means that we are moving.  His new title is application engineer. 

Mark's last day at Woods will be February 28 and he will then begin working at Gehl on March 3.  I am not sure exactly what I am doing but I will still work at Schlichting for at least those two weeks and we will see what happens from there.

We plan on buying a house in that area but most likely not in West Bend.  It is north of Milwaukee about 45 minutes.  We would prefer to be a little closer to Milwaukee just in case I have to work there.  That way we would be about halfway between West Bend and Milwaukee. 

Obviously we are putting our house on the market.  So if you know anyone that is interested let us know. 

I am very proud of Mark and I think that he is incredibly excited for this new opportunity.

Congrats Mark! I was checking out the map of your new area. I've always wanted to say I had a cousin who lives in Germantown, WI that's my vote for your new home. Can't wait to see the future posts of your progress building your second home theater!

The funny thing is, Germantown is one of the potential places. We have heard good things about it.

Congratulations, Mark! If you were going to move to Wisconsin, couldn't you have moved a little closer to Madison??

Congratulations!!! How very exciting! Brian and I are also planning a move to the Lower 48 this summer. Hopefully we'll be able to send some more time together!

Best of luck! Send along your new address (when you have one!)

maybe Iowa, maybe Colorado, but NOT Texas! Actually Fort Dodge Iowa is the front runner at the moment.

Woo Hoo Mark! Great news on your new job! Having never lived in Wisconsin I had to look on a map to see exactly where West Bend was. It is still a little far from Portland, Oregon. Ha Ha.. But what an adventure for you both! I look forward to keeping track of the move via the blog. Three cheers for technology eh?
