Happy Holidays

Karen and I will be very busy with many activities for the next four weeks.

Each day we pack up boxes of our belongings for storage in an 8 'x 40' metal storage unit at a nearby storage facility.  We are making some progress in emptying and cleaning up our home in preparation for a sale of our home.

We have some travel plans and a train trip planned.

We will spend some time with family and friends over the holiday season.

Something borrowed?  Saturnalia?   Christmas?   New Year?  Winter Solstice?
