Taylor, one of our grands is helping sweep the decks.

Safe in Indiana

The trip to Indiana went well. We were rained out Sunday and stopped early but finished the last 750 miles on Monday! We've opened the La Porte house, summerized the motor home for the GLASS rally, visited some family and friends, attended the funeral of a church friend, rested and began the process of readying the La Porte house for sale, it's amazing just how much stuff one accumulates over a 70 year lifetime, especially when you save everything just cause "I might need that someday"!

We finalized the contract for the house in Texas yesterday so when all the paperwork is finished it will be ours!

Wanna buy a house in La Porte? Before we list with a realitor it could be a great price...and yes we will move allour stuff out! The sale could include an elecric start snow blower, a spa, all appliances. It's a three BR 2 1/2 bath (all upgraded last year) two story with fireplace in the finished basement family room, eat in kitchen, large rear decks extra large (24X24)attached garage on a 1/2 acre heavily wooded chain link fenced (back yard only) lot in a quiet rural subdivision in the New Prairie School District.

Here's two photos both before spring clean up. Remember we just returned Monday night at 9:00 p.m.

One photo is of the front the other is looking out over the decks toward our woods. There was a racoon on our deck on Wednesday.

Remember I said we live in a wooded rural subdivision, racoons, possoms, deer are common in our back yard. Our prize are the annual jack-in-the-pulpits that come every spring in a new location each year!
