I also decided that due to some life changing events over the past year, that instead of dusting off the old blog, a sparkling new blog with a new title was in order.<br /><br />We left Florida in October for the mountainous terrain and the beautiful autumn of Roanoke, VA.<br /> I HAVE missed fall!<br /><a href="http://www.blogger.com/schoolinthesun.blogspot.com">School in the Sun</a> seems like a strange name for a blog coming from the <a href="http://www.roanokeva.gov/85256a8d0062af37/vwContentByKey/N25DWPNC572LWODEN">City under the Star</a>, thus "Following Yonder Star" is born.<br /><br />I hope to be updating with photos and stories of our life here.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/356652620466655475-804847549859161263?l=ouryonderstar.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Jenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13024872778512465771noreply@blogger.com0
