Hi Judy, Emil, Dawna, Brad and everybody,

Yes it's true, my family needs me to come back to New
York immediately to help with multiple crises,
including that my sister fell while mountain climbing
recently and narrowly missed becoming paraplegic. So,
Justin and I are finishing up the house projects that
we had planned for this summer on a much shortened
schedule so that we can sell our house in a few weeks.
Perhaps I can actually do what Gren asked me to do a
few years back and "move here more often," i.e., move
away and come back again in a few years. At least at
that point I won't have to kick myself that I didn't
do the most I could for my family, or that I missed my
Mom and Dad's last years (you never know).

I'm really going to miss all my good neighbors, my
house, my rose bushes, all the conversations between
the bus stop and Eddies, even all the steps from the
basement to the third floor of my house (great
practice for my own mountain climbing, BTW). I'm sure
I'll look back in a few months and say I was crazy to
think that I could leave CV. But I've decided to go.

Justin will be staying in Baltimore for his Master's
degree program in Environmental Health Nursing and the
Environmental Justice project which we've started with
the Greater Baltimore Sierra Club. We've done the long
distance relationship thing before and while it's not
the most fun, it works.

And by the way, we got married last Wednesday! :)

It might seem a tad strange that we'll be living apart
for a while right after being married, but Justin's
brother and sister-in-law are doing essentially the
same thing so it's not unprecedented in the family.

Justin and I are tentatively planning to have a "house
chilling" party -- we never did get around to the
house warming party -- on Saturday June 26th in the
afternoon/evening. If you'd like to stop by then,
please do.

:)

Crystal

P.S. John Spurrier is offering to give a major
donation to the Village Learning Place for everyone
who lists with him this summer, so when we're ready to
list, we'll do so with him.
