Moving Out

We sold the house and have said goodbyes to the neighbors.  It was a wonderful neighborhood and we will miss it but it is time for an adventure.

 


 The pad is leveled and the container delivered to Ted and Vicki's. Travis, Braeden, Jackson and others muscled the contents of the house out to the container. Our lives now in a steel box. lol.



We moved the motorhome to Jon and Karen's in Albany and that is now our temporary home base.  We are greeted with a beautiful sunrise in the mornings. Soon we leave for Bremerton,WA to visit Ian and family.

Mark Twain

 “Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime.”

This is it in a nutshell.  This and the desire to see other cultures, be they US or foreign, as they are in their daily lives.
