Really, we’re going to start editing this someday. : There is absolutely nothing going on in our lives that we like to talk about – whatever.
2004
We moved up to Placerville in April or May to watch the house get built (be brought in). By Thanksgiving we moved in – just in time for the holidays.
We know, it’s been a few years but honestly, with all the gardening and reading we just can’t seem to find the time to sit down and think up stories to write.
Our son has been doing a bang-up job on the website and we really appreciate it but we just don’t have the time to sit around and write about what we’ve done or where we’ve been.
2005
In the beginning we were traveling the world, or at least the U.S.
2006
We stopped traveling and settled into a house in the wilderness – sort of. It’s about 4 miles south of Placerville on a little dirt road named Pretty Good Rd.
2007
There’s been a lot of nothing happening, Kathy has been trying to sell her house for nearly a year now and we have been trying to plan our next vacation with Tom’s motor home. Other than that we have been bowling twice (sometimes three) times a week (between doctor visits) and watching the grass grow (and the maple trees too).
October: Bonnie (dad’s cousin) went into ICU but we haven’t heard anything since then. She started having problems swallowing and has been in the hospital. Her family and friends are praying for her. In an email dated 12/11/07 from Joanne, “I’m sorry I haven’t kept up with my writing. It has been a long 6 weeks since Mom has been so sick. She is still hanging in there .. now under Hospice care. Although the last couple of days she has been unable to swallow making it impossible to eat or drink, this is not good. She is aware most of the time and has made her own decisions about her care and is comfortable with no pain.”
and a bunch of other things too, but we’re getting to them.

in progress …
