We made it. But not without some trepidation. We ran into every kind of weather including below zero temperatures (Colorado and Wyoming), Ice Storms and snow covered passes (Utah), and heavy rain and Fog (California). Let's not forget the construction traffic jam in Las vegas, Nevada, and the pending 4 hour highway closure on I-15 at Primm, NV. WE beat that closure by about half an hour.
Here are some pictures of our new house. It is a little bit cramped, but we really don;t need anymore space than this. We spend most of our time outside anyway and there is a long list of things to do to keep the park up to speed.
our son Grant was here to visit for Christmas. He slept on the couch. We realize that we need some other sleeping spaces if more people came, so we have a goal to work on an extra bedroom in the back of the Office building.
We are adjusting to a slower pace and being farther away from everything. There is something to say for less stress in one's life and just taking things day by day. I think Valarie will agree that we have made a good choice and we are excited about this new adventure in our life. Today we are at my Sister Wendi's house with her husband Dave and three kids Joey, Micheala and Alexa. Christmas was fun and different with them this year. It reminded us of when our kids were little.
We got to talk with Jeff, our other son, who is in the Dominican Republic with the Peace Corp. and that was great. He is doing well and has plans fto celebrate Christmas and New Years with other Peace Corp volunteers. He sounds like he is doing well and we are grateful for that.
We will post some more Lakeridge pictures soon.
