In Maui

Jus got Internet up at the house.......we are baaack, on line that is. Arrived just right, on Maui Tues. Got the van from the dock, got 20 box's from overwhelmed local post office, got to the house where we find some issues but.........workable, after monster unload of luggage and boxes (beeg sweaty kind work) took showers and went to local restaurant for dinner, driving home in dark after, on steep hill ran out of gas, had fun backing down pitch dark narrow road right above busy Hana Hwy. and meeting very helpful friends and neighbors. To sleep at 3:00am PDT......recovering now, beautiful days, lot's of work cleaning up this house, meetings with nurses for T - getting lists of supply together for shopping soon in Kahului - Costco, Savers (Value Village), Target.......ya know, "stuff" stores. I keep finding Tracy wandering the grounds staring at flora and fauna with huge grins, she is totally thriving in this climate already even though we have yet to hit the beach and the ocean. Today should be the day!
Aloha for now! New phone number (land line) 808-214-6136

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!
