October 2014: Welcoming visitors from a region
once governed by the former U.S.S.R. offered us a unique
opportunity to share the essence of Americana over their
month-long stay, exploring diverse sites across America, Canada,
Pennsylvania, and West Virginia. Their experience was deeply
enriching, evident in their heartfelt message, which expressed
gratitude for the memories created during their time with you:
"Hello Valerie, Anthony, and family. We have received the
package. It is a miraculous recollection of a wonderful holiday
with you. The flag I have sent is a rare relic of a
once-existing state." This thoughtful gesture underscored
the exchange of culture and friendship that transcended borders
and histories.
New
visitors, who were once under the governance of the former
U.S.S.R, were introduced to
Americana
and an array of sites within America, Canada and West Virginia
during their one month stay.
They returned home
with the most positive of impressions. "Hello Valerie, Anthony and
family. We have received the package. It is a miraculous recollection of
a wonderful holiday with You. The flag which I have sent is a rare relic
of a once existing state". |
While thirteen years of navigating challenges with the Partners, and
later Tri-Partners, significantly influenced our decision to move, it
was not the sole reason; the response to my Geo-Surgical Timeline from
January 2014 also played a vital role in shaping our path forward.
Adding to the complexity, two relatives—one from my wife's family and
one from mine—remarked independently, "I work hard and was smart
too," about our success, a chilling coincidence that emerged a
decade apart during some of our most vulnerable times. Their comments,
echoing similar sentiments, chipped away at our resolve and raised
unsettling questions about what type of fraternity could shape such
phrasing ten years apart? Though these cumulative experiences weren't
the primary cause for our relocation, they certainly felt like the
proverbial icing on the cake, compelling us to seek a fresh start.
