A little background first..
I was born and raised in Houston. I left when I was 22 to join the Navy, after four years my wife (girlfriend at the time) moved to here home state of Arizona and went to school. After finishing our degrees, we moved to Houston because I had a great opportunity to work for my old man and to potentially take over the family business one day.
Now to the issue..
I have been back and working for about 3.5 years, and am really just not happy. Not so much with the job, because I like my job, in the end I see a job as a job. But, in all honesty I kinda miss all of the things I got to do in Arizona, the hunting (cheaper), the hiking, camping, snowboarding, etc. and Houston just isn't the same. Its overly disgusting now, and I really don't want to raise a child here... Well after talking to my wife, we have decided to go back to AZ this upcoming summer. I haven't told my dad yet, I actually fear doing it, one thing I have always hated doing was letting him down. On top of all of this, my first child/his first grandson was born two months ago... I am putting off telling him until after the deer season because I really don't know what to say yet. Any advice on how to break this to him would be great...
