Where Have I Been????



I would like to apologize for for my overwhelming silence since my last posting of PH-13 flying with the Christmas lights attached.  Karin and I have begun a new Adventure....a very positive one this time!  After living in our "starter house" for nearly 43 years we have decided to move south.  My preference would probably be to Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, because of the weather (especially after this unusually frigid winter we have had in the Great Northwest.)

But we're not going that far south; we bought a brand new house in Lacey, Washington, about 60 miles south of Seattle, near our state capitol of Olympia.  We will be in an over-55 community situated on an oak tree preserve.  Our community in Kirkland has changed gradually over the years, so much so that we really don't have a lot in common here any more; I am almost 72 and Karin is, well, let's just say that she is "mature."  And our Kirkland community is trending much younger.

Anyway, I haven't been on the blog because we have been very busy getting our house ready to go on the real estate market, cleaning stuff, finding things we forgot we had lost, putting a fresh coat of paint on room walls and doors, using the "Veterans Park Here" parking spaces at Home Depot a lot.

However, in the meantime our friend George Drago has been faithful in sending some great material for the blog.  Here is a link to "an oldie but goodie" that happened at Marble Mountain over 50 years ago.  Take a look and enjoy!
