STILL ALIVE

OK, I have been really bad and have not posted anything on here for over eight months! That doesn’t mean we have been sitting still, just the opposite. I promise to get some highlights from the past eight months posted on here soon. Since this Spring, we have been very active in the yard and […]

First Snow

The first snow of the season fell here on Thursday night (Dec 8th). We awoke on Friday to about 3″ of wet snow, which by Saturday was mostly gone due to the temperature and rain. The extended forecast says there is another chance Sunday and Monday and next Friday. Here are a couple of pictures […]

One Month & Counting

When I last wrote, we (mostly Juli, Don, and Rose) were painting. Since then there was still more painting and touch up along the ceiling where the paint bled through the tape or didn’t cover enough. The touch up was left for me, and it meant a lot of up and down the ladders. The […]

Ten Days After Closing

I have been remiss for not writing a post sooner, but we are keeping very busy here with painting mostly, cleaning, and cleaning up the yard. I should say that Rose, Juli, and Don have been keeping very busy painting. Without their help, we wouldn’t be anywhere close to where we are today. We weren’

Today Was Closing

Today was closing on our house. We moved the RV and ourselves to the grounds of the house, now the work begins! Since arriving in early afternoon, we walked around the property a few times visualizing what we need to trim or totally remove and things we need to do. I installed a new motion […]
