A Change is Coming

We are down to the last few weeks before we leave the nome we have lived in for the past 28+ years. I actually never planned on moving. I was happy livin in "the Hood". We had made a lot of the changes we wanted to our home so it truly was no biggie if we lived out the rest of our time in this home.

We are about to empty nest again with no plans to fill the nest this time. The nest will have the time to time filling from visits from our boys and their growing families. We hope others will stop by for frequent visits. We do enjoy the country quiet and the ability to walk out the back or front door and not have cars and people everywhere.

We are moving a trailer load at a time . Everytime we go over we grab some stuff and take it with us. This way I can unload it and put it away as it enters the new house.

We don't plan on changing anything in the interior of the house. It will be just fine for us for the time being. Most of what we want to work on is the outside grounds. And there is so much out there to work with.

Buck and I live a fairly simple life and it will get more so now that we are going to this new house. Especially with the new economic times. We have to find short cuts and easier cheaper ways of doing things. This has hit all of us pretty hard in the pocket. I might even put out a garden. Yes, that is so hard to believe but I do enjoy some veggies. I hate when you get them from the store and they do not even taste like what they are suppose to be.

I was catching fish big time yesterday. The bluegill/pumpkinseeds are spawning and all you have to do is hold a worm over the beds and the males attack the worm. Not sure I should even call it fishing but it is fun to throw something out and be able to reel a fish in. I always throw back everything I catch. I don't want to take out all the fish and not have some there when other people want to fish. I know that is a dumb way to look at things but I don't want to cook them so why kill them for nothing.
