The gentleman has a theory that if doors keep opening, one should probably take that as a hint. Last week, one such door opened for us, bringing big changes to our little world. I am pleased to announce that the gentleman has been named the new Executive Director of the Museums of Old York, in York, Maine (I'm so terribly proud of him).
So, I think you can guess what that means ~ our time in Washington is quickly coming to close.
We are impossibly excited to be headed north, knowing that there will be bittersweet moments in the transition. There is so much to think about in the next month and I hope you'll excuse my necessary absence from this space. But, oh the adventures we'll have in Maine!
Here's to new beginnings. . .

So happy - for you both. KDM
Janet,
Congratulations to your gentleman and to you fine lady. I adore Maine and have many fond memories of traveling there.

Congratulations to you both. I hope this doesn't mean we'll lose you altogether. Nonetheless, best wishes.
it is very exciting! & I know you will love the newness of the OLD.
Wishing you both a fine journey and improbable joy.
This couldn't be better news---for you and the Gentleman, for the very wonderful Museums of Old York, and for those of us who are selfishly glad to have you here in Maine. Best wishes
Wow - such great news (despite being a major loss for a certain DC institution)! To the gentleman: very impressive indeed! Congratulations! So hope all will go well as you prepare to move, during the transitions, and as you begin the next chapter in Maine!
i had heard little mutterings about this. so happy for you both!
xo
this is big news!!!!! wow!!!!
Congratulations! What exciting news. Your parents must be THRILLED! Don't know if this means I will get to see more of you. I tend to get to Maine half as much as DC, but tend to be more leisurely when in Maine, then when in DC. So psyched for this change.

Congrats to both of you. It sounds like a wonderful opportunity and a location you already love. Kept thinking I would get to D.C. and have a chance to meet you. Maybe this means a vacation in Maine some day!
Such good fortune for Maine, her history & her people.
You know already, we are popping with joy! And...perhaps we will get to see more of Angela too. So much happiness!
I'm so excited for both of you--I can't wait to see what this next chapter has in store for you!
Congratulations to you both! York is my hometown; Old York provided me with my first internship. It remains a very dynamic organization and will no doubt become even more so!
congrats to J!! What a fantastic position!! Sad you are leaving, but what an adventure that awaits...
oh -but we will miss you so here :-(
