Stranger than Fiction

Ain't nothin' easy.  Seems the guy who owns the house we're buying is suffering from stage III Remorse.  2 1/2 weeks before closing he wants to cancel the deal.  Enough so that he talked to his lawyer today.  And here we are wondering where it's all going.  Will we have a home to move to?  Will we become a lawyer's pet?  I'm sure it will be terribly amusing someday.  Not today, though.

My brother's city


This is the view from my brother David's roof in Santa Barbara. He and my sister-in-law, Mary are fine. Sadly, many in the area are not.

The tunnel suddenly ends


This is the post I've been waiting to write for at least a couple years now.  We bought a freakin' house!  Cindy sold hers (old news)!  I'm entertaining an offer for mine tonight (so I've been told)!  This has seemed like an unreachable pipe dream for a long time now.  And here we are.  Trying to put together moving plans.  Trying to come up with a wedding plan.  Trying to come up with a financial plan.  What a sweet pain it is!

Know this:  We are getting married on August 22, 2009 come hell, high water, astroid or whatever.  We hope to see you all then.  Formal information will be coming shortly.  Woo Hoo!!

Hey!  Somebody wrote a nice article on my and my photos in the new Color magazine!  My print prices have just doubled. (not really)
