The year of extremes

The past year has been one of extremes. First, we bought a house( dilapidated little Thumbelina)and proceeded to do an extreme make-over. We sold a house, in an extreme down market. The work has been EXTREME. Period.
Let's talk about the weather---A cold, cold winter. A soggy wet(wettest April on record)spring and then the heat of summer. 100+ for six days. Not to mention the storms, hurricanes, earthquakes & droughts. Extreme.
Autumn weather is here. Likely these
temperatures will not last, but a break in 102 temps has certainly made the work crews jump for joy. This girl included.
We had some extreme travel, as well..... Not as much as we had planned, but.... we are dusting off the TinCan, loading her with goodies and beginning to live our dream of rambling about, seeing what we can see.
Our journey will take us to Michigan. Our dear, dear friends, Meg and John, will watch their handsome son Chris wed Naomi this weekend. Their lovely daughter Meriwether will be there, also. This will kick off ten days of nothing. Or maybe something. A large body of water and chilly nights~~~~ that's about enough for me.
Stay tuned.
