We are now officially chickenless. Congratulations to the LaMedica family on their new flock of eleven.
Somehow, in the midst of finishing up Pride & Prejudice and Spring break, we were able to forget that our whole lives are on the verge of major change.
But today we went cross country skiing.... for the "last" time.... We turned the kids' season rentals in on our way home. And now the chickens are gone.
Tomorrow, I will be back to looking at luggage. And it will soon be time to wrap up this blog and start our new one. "Gilfords on the Go". Find us and our new adventures at www.gilfordsonthego.blogspot.com.
Meawhile, keep checking this blog for additions to the Moving Sale post!

One Way Ticket
to Paradise..... isn't that how the song goes? Purportedly, we have tickets and they are on their way from the travel agency that SSIS uses in the States. We leave from Portland on July 14, 2011, arriving in Ho Chi Minh City two days later on the 16th. Somehow it all seems more real now. There is something sobering about a one-way ticket. Something that says, "Here you go then", "Be off with you".
On the home front, we are in the midst of the final days of play practice for this year's Performing Arts Group of Estacada's production of Pride and Prejudice. We are giving ourselves permission to not get too much done until our performances are over. With play practice every night and most of the weekend days until opening night on March 10th, there isn't much of an option. But we do continue to spread the word via word of mouth, which seems to be working quite well. Lulu may have a home in the home where her mother lives - we could not imagine a better solution for her. The chickens are mostly spoken for and maybe the goats. And, we get one or two queries every day from people who might be interested in renting our place. Possibly, it really WILL all work out.
