Congratulations Peter - that's fantastic! New responsibilities, new challenges, new location, and new pay!! Pretty exciting. I took the "virtual tour" of the facility - what a beautiful place to go to work at.
I can't beleive the housing prices!!!! Holy crap!!! Ashburn only has a population of 50,000 and there is nothing decent under $350K?!?! Man oh man I've got to stop complaining about the real estate here.
Here in SW Ontario, I live in an area called the "Tri-Cities", which has a population of 415,000. (We are about 60 miles from the GTA Greater Toronto Area - Pop 5.7Million). Here, you can buy a really nice, fully detached 3bdrm house (1200 to 1500sqr ft) for $190,000 to $250,000. Jump up to a 4bdrm 2500sqr and you'll pay $325,000 to $390,000. And everyone complains how crazy the prices are!
