That's what I thought of when I read this post. I loved this! It speaks volumes of you and your family - how you raised them, the love you have for each other, how connected you are, the respect.<br /><br />This is my favorite part: "We knew we wanted,<br />preferably the warm sun, ocean water and if we had to do any struggling, let it be in Paradise!"<br /><br />AMEN!<br /><br />PS - The house you left behind in the snow looks EXACTLY like one here in my subdivision; in fact it is the one that sold us on our subdivsion. We had gotten recommendations from friends on three builders and checked out houses under construction by each of them. The builder we finally settled on was FAR superior in craftsmanship, and was building the house like yours; when we talked to him over the phone, he told us where we could see some of his work, gave us directions, and that's how we came to find the house and our town and lot! Even though he was building that house for someone else, and we already had our plans, we walked through the house and it was very nice.ethelmaepotter!https://www.blogger.com/profile/10626030604752269356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-409790885398939401.post-27663546368384632252010-02-15T09:30:18.046-08:002010-02-15T09:30:18.046-08:00What a wonderful post!

I just loved that car not because it was so cool or sporty but because it was so useful. I could fold up the back and have an extra seat for more sorority sisters. We folded all back seats down once and stole a frats English Wolfhound for ransom. It was handy for movin' most anything or anybody. Yep, a good car it was.<br /><br />Ya'll have a terrifically blessed day!!!Nezzy (Cow Patty Surprise)https://www.blogger.com/profile/10175389676508928061noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-409790885398939401.post-20315546202193699642010-02-11T10:48:15.602-08:002010-02-11T10:48:15.602-08:00Oh my a chariot fit for a queen.

Divine intervention perhaps? It was such a pleasure to read about your experiences and I will take much to heart. I grew up in Seattle, lived in San Diego, Las Vegas, and now in Houston. We have never truly been happy here although we have discovered some very special people. We are so strapped financially (job loss, drastic reduction of income, you name it..it's happened) that we need to find some peace and a sliver of happiness. If I've learned anything recently is that life is so short. My mom died Jan. 1st & it's really opened my heart and mind. I'm not sure how my children would react if we decide to move. Two children in Portland,OR & two in Washington State. I will keep you posted. If you two can part with those sweet vehicles, I can too.
