2 Week Escrow!

We are moving with a whirlwind of activity to get everything done. (Note to self, pay the water bill. Yes, that bit was forgotten.)

The items being shipped to Scotland filled only 1/3 of my sewing room.

The items being sold have almost all been picked up. I’ve a chair and an end table to use at the end of the day.

We’ve squeezed in two quick trips to THE kids in Spokane and in Utah with the truck filled with treasures.

A few final rounds of hide n’ seek, trips for ice cream and the park….hugs and tears.

We’re tired, a tad bit overwhelmed and

so blessed by those we have in our lives.

    My dear friend,
    Sending you love and all good wishes as you embark on this exciting adventure. It know it is a mixed bag–your farm was fairy-tale beautiful and a labor of love. But there are more great times ahead for you and Pat, I know, in a new and equally beautiful place. Please keep blogging!
    Love you always,
    Pat Camp

    Wow, it’s finally here! We send you off with a sea of prayers as you cross the North Atlantic to your new home. Explore, take your time (but not too much time ) to settle in so that we can plan our adventure to Scotland to join you for some fun and long overdue time together. Much love and many hugs,
    Judy and Mark

    I’ve been thinking about you two. I’m trusting there will come a day when you can just sit down, take a deep breath, and see this whole process behind you. Meanwhile, unending details and work.

    • Ellen October 13, 2023, 4:55 pm

      Thanks Dear John,
      It will come soon and the folks at the dump will miss us

  • Robert Scott October 13, 2023, 10:44 am

    Sometimes our lives can drag us down, sometimes they go along with quiet peace and we feel it as “normal”.
    When we look at someone else’s life we may not know all it involves but, we have looked into you and Pat’s time at Glory Farm through your blog and been allowed to be part of your life.

    I know you’re moving away physically but, I know we All will still be right there with you through your sharing your life and love’s in your blog.
    One of your Seattle cousins,
    Rob & Candy Scott

      This time with you nearby has been such a treat.
      see you in Scotland, we hope.
