I have been a member of this site for a while, and a long time lurker on this forum. It has been a great source of information for us in our search for places to move after my current job ends. Well that time has come, and we are now finally starting the more practical side of the relocation process!

The information you all have given has been invaluable to us as we have narrowed down our locations. The insight provided by Hiknapster, Barking Spider, and countless others was so very much appreciated. Now that we're moving into a new phase, is just didn't seem right to do so without saying thank you and hello! I feel like I know so many of you, and that you are friends, even though we've never met.

We will be semi-retired, but will still have middle and high school kids for the next six years. We'll be concentrating on places in the Farragut, Hardin Valley, Bearden, and Oak Ridge school districts. We're visiting in mid-April, and I'll update you after that, if you're interested.

Again, thank you so much for all you've done to make this process easier, fun, and entertaining!

Dan

Receiving a message like this makes it worth it, in my opinion. Thank you very much for taking the time to express your gratitude. I hope you have a great visit and if you have any question do not hesitate to ask!

By the way, the News Sentinel's academic dream team picks usually come from most of the areas that you are interested in. I'm now living in the Bearden/West High area and loving it. Moving to this section of Knoxville is one of the best decisions I've ever made.

Thanks for the info. It reinforces our thinking process, which makes us feel like we're on the right track.

I'm sure I will have bunches of questions after the visit. We've visited before, but this is the first time with the reality of it so close at hand. Its a big idea, and some days it's somewhat overwhelming, but mostly we're looking forward to starting the new chapter ahead. Wow, are there a lot of details to think about! We've moved around quite a bit in my career so you would think I'd be used to it by this point

Thanks again. Update forthcoming.
