Movin' on Up

"All changes, even the most longed for, have their melancholy; for what we leave behind is part of ourselves; we must die to one life before we can enter into another."

~Anatole France

It was with a fond farewell that we bid adieu to our Old House yesterday afternoon; we'd had lots of good times in that little place.  The house was finally emptied and cleaned, quietly awaiting its next tenant.  And then we went home to the New House and met our new neighbors.  They seem nice, and the New House is a bit nicer than our old place.  We've already had exploits in the New House -- a large dead tree limb fell on our roof (thankfully with little or damage!), and I made rice krispies treats for the first time.  Guess which exploit involved more feats of dexterity and skill.
So, the transition continues, as we sort through belongings and arrange affairs -- but it's official.  We're all moved in, huzzah!  

Some things never change, of course; the art just keeps on comin'!  Enjoy.
