As I tweeted earlier this week, I'm relocating to Southern California next Friday. I'll be driving the 2,800 miles, stopping a few times to meet with family, and stopping in Texas to get water.

Just wanted to give a shout out to my boss Jeff Tamburino at Tamman Tech (jtamburino@tammantech.com), who I hope to cross paths with again some day.

Thanks,
Don

Awesome, congrats on the new new role, Don! I made the same trek two years ago, and it has been a wild ride :) Welcome to Cali, the west is the best!

@donmontalvo - Nicely done. And yes, welcome to SoCal! When I moved out here (right after the invention of the automobile it seems), I drove out with my best friend and all we had was what fit in the trunks of our cars.
Used CB radios to communicate, and made a go of it.

Hopefully we'll run into each other at SoCal JAMF gatherings. I've learned a bunch of stuff from you and others here. Safe travels...

Scott

@kitzy I do plan to hit Cupertino every few weeks to hook up with my old boss. He's the lead on Find My iPhone and Find My Friends. I'll definitely shout when I do!

If you are in your old stomping grounds in Texas, give @stevewood and me a shout!

Nice one Don! Wish you all the best mate!

Sadly this means a 10hr time difference between me and you, so I guess no more FaceTime audio calls ;)

@SeanA not sure yet if I'll be coming through Texas yet, family along the way aren't along the usual routes. But hopefully we'll see you at #JNUC2015? :)

@franton just means I'll need to hop on a flight to your area. Business class please. <tongue-in-cheek> We'll hit the gun range in your memory this year, since you're probably not coming to #JNUC2015.

Are you allowed to say Gun and live in California? Have you checked that what you are taking with you is legal in that state?

@nessts Yep, I used to go there every month or three when we managed the Macs at Warner Bros. I always visit LASD to say hi to friends/family on the force. Lots of changes in CCW laws coming, but that conversation has a better place... :) http://www.calccw.com/Forums/new-members/26104-relocating-de-ca-few-weeks.html
