Just about off to Hawaii

It's a very rainy October Friday afternoon, hanging out in our hotel in Seattle, settling final affairs. Yesterday we drove away from our beloved West Seattle house for the last time. Months and months of planning, work, challenge and fun culminating in a single instant. Mission accomplished! The house is empty and clean and the new owners are moving in today. The Volvo wagon is sold and it's replacement, our "new" '73 Ford window van awaits our arrival, on the dock in Kahalui, Maui.

We fly on Tues. next, grab the van, head to the Haiku Post Office to pick up boxes, maybe jump in the water, grab some groceries and head for the new digs.

Then, let the decompression begin. We are feeling that learning to relax, slow down, merge into Hawaii time, might be somewhat challenging after such a habit of go, go go..........but, what a fun challenge - no complaints from us and no worries!
