5 Weeks Left

We delivered Jim's parts car to Walla Walla, WA on Sunday. Jim was thrilled to get rid of it and the guy who bought it was thrilled to get it. Perfect for everyone.


While in Milton-Freewater looking for a place to eat we ran across this guy wanting to take a picture, so Jim obliged.


We're starting to pack things up. We're living amidst piles of boxes and stacks of books and clothes, all waiting to go someplace. This weekend we'll take the FZR and a pile of car stuff to store in our trailer and take another bike to sell in the Tri-Cities. The list is getting smaller every day!

Building a Loft

We built a loft in the trailer last weekend for our stuff. We'll park the cars below - obviously ;-) - and store our stuff up above. Jim taught me how to use the SkilSaw. I'm far from being an expert, but I didn't cut off any fingers, so I'm thinking that's a good thing.

7 Weeks to Go!

7 Weeks to Go! Time is really flying now. Week 8 was spent sick with bronchitis. Week 9 was spent in California with Jim's Grandparents for their 65th wedding anniversary party.





This weekend Jim is going to build a loft in the trailer so we can start packing up for storage. We've been going through our stuff and deciding what to keep, what to toss, and what to give away. It's amazing the stuff we've accumulated over the years! Last night we went through a trunk full of photos. We tossed a full garbage bag full of envelopes, old negatives, and fuzzy or double takes of photos. We spent a lot of time remembering - laughing and reminicising - as we went through years of photos that never got put into photo albums. What fun! It's fun to see the changes people make over the years. We both made a lot of "look how young "so and so" looks. Now the photos are somewhat organized and easier to go through. Maybe one of these days they'll actually make it into a photo album.

We now have our pickup for sale:
