Move update....

17 years ago

I'm writing this from sunny New Mexico! We closed on the NM house last week and I'm madly trying to get things ready before I go back to VA this weekend. We close there on the 7th then we're driving back out with our small menagerie.

I moved some of my garden junque, i.e. all of my elephant ear leaf castings,(the plant won't grow in NM without lots and lots of water),a few BBs, my two concrete statues and some totems that I couldn't bear to part with. We loaded up a BIG U-Haul and brought out one load of stuff, house and yard things. As far as I can tell nothing broke on the trip. Hooray!

The yard at our new house is almost a blank canvas so I have lots of projects ahead of me. The first one will be removing all the nasty black plastic someone buried in the garden. Ugh. It'll probably take all summer but that's OK.

I haven't taken any photos yet but I'll do so and post them when I get a chance.

Is JT still hanging with Luna?

Take care all!

Lots of work, but how exciting! A new yard to set up, a new home, and most of all...your beloved NM again.
I'm so happy for you.
And as Jan said, drive safe!

hugs, Karen

JT is still with me. I am hunting for things to fill up the huge gaps in the Junk Train. I'm hoping to get her back on the tracks again this weekend.

Congratulations on the new move! If you get on the computer tomorrow, you can email your new address to me and I can add it to the Junk Train notebook. I'm hoping to ship JT out on Saturday and, if you don't catch me by then, you can let the next stop know.

I'm so happy that you are back in your beloved New Mexico and that your load of precious cargo made the trip safely!
