First, our computer died about a month ago, and they are sooooo expensive here, we are waiting until we get back to the US to replace it. Consequently, we have been somewhat restricted with posting to the blog. I do have some things to put up after we get back.
Today we fly back to the US. We are happy to be heading back to see family and friends in the States, but very sad to be leaving Ann and Ken, Zack and Emma. This has been quite an adventure. We left the US on November 13, 2011. Since then we have set up a household from scratch, gotten the grandchildren settled and doing wonderfully in school, seen Ken find a great job and Ann begin her Masters program. As Ken said the other night, it couldn't have gone better.
We will be placing our Palencia, Florida house on the market, and doing some remodelling to the Beech Mountain house. God willing, we will head back to New Zealand in November for six months to contiune our exploration of the land of the Kiwi.
