Selling the house!

Friday, the Coldwell Banker Realtor came and did a walk through of the house and got all the information needed to get the paperwork ready. Ron and I went and signed all the necessary papers on Saturday! Now we just need to have them come and take pictures both inside and outside then the house will be placed on the internet.

It is a bitter sweet feeling! We have lived in this house for 9 years and now we are selling something that we have put time and effort into fixing up and moving it from a 70's house into a more modern style!

We have lots to do between now and mid June! Many things to sell and many more things to either throw away or set aside to take with and cherish! It does feel good to get rid of things that when you find them you say "why do we still have this?" or "wow, I forgot we had this!"

The next grand adventure

We desided to start this blog to stay in touch with all of our many friends while we move in and through our next grand adventure!

Today, February 18, 2011, we received word that Ron had been accepted into the Pediatric Dental Residency at the University of Washington in Seattle. We will be moving some time in mid to late June to Seattle Washington to live for the next two years while Ron is in school! Then for the four years after that we will be stationed in Browning Montana at the Blackfeet Indian Hospital.

We now have to place the house (built in 1974) on the market and hope it sells in a reasonable amount of time. The truck (a 1992 Ford F-150), our camp trailer (a 2006 Fleetwood - sleeps 7) and Ron's motorcycle (a 2004 Kawasaki Vulcan 500LTD) all have to be sold also since we cannot take them with us! It is amazing how much stuff can be accumulated in 12 years of not moving around! We have so many things to go through and decide if we need to keep it!

We are very excited about this new adventure that we are about to embark upon!
