Long Time

I cannot sign into the Blog from home!! I have a lot of old photos that I could scan in but I've changed settings and everything and it won't work. I don't have a scanner at my desk so I'll have to e-mail some of the photos here. I hope everyone is doing well and has a Merry Christmas!!!

Moving Update

Well, I'm mostly moved but not unpacked. I'm going to take my time and this move I will do all of the unpacking myself so that I know where things are. It's great for people to help but when they unpack it goes where they would put it and not where you would put it. I don't have any photos so that will have to come next time.
I have nothing of interest to talk about as my mind has been consumed with finding a house, packing, moving and unpacking. BORING!!
I'll come back soon with photos.

What ha been happening!


Okay, I know it has been almost two months but there has been a lot going on in my life. I have looked at 26 houses and some of these twice! I put an offer in on one house but there were numerous things that needed to be repaired and then the inspector found termites. They weren't bad but needed treatment but the owners did not have money for that so I walked away. The next house was very nice but had not been updated since the 70's so all new floor coverings and painting. I gave a low offer as it would take some money to do all of the work. It wasn't accepted. Soooooo I went back to a small house that I really liked in a great neighborhood and I close on Wednesday next week. Lots of work buying a house and this house did not have everything that I wanted but I realized that it would work well for me. The photo above shows the living room and I can't get the photo to stay turned so you'll need to loo at it sideways. Funny but I didn't take on outside photo. I will in the next couple of weeks.
I may post other photos in another post as I'm frustrated with this new photo program!!

Igussu Falls Brazil South America

These photos are from the falls area and these were all taken by us. I know these almost look fake but believe me they are real. It's an amazing place and the power of the falls is awesome.


We saw butterfly's that were also amazing. Charlotte had a great camera for these close ups.


I thought this was wonderful that in a national park there was a plaque with a Bible verse. They have more freedom than we do when it comes to religion.



Amazing butterfly!! I'll post more photos soon!!
