Well, I have left the probate issues, the lawyer issues, the tax issues for my dear brother to deal with, "closed up" our beach house, said goodbye to the Florida kis/grand and have spent the last 2 days at the farm in NC. This am we said goodbye to the farm kids/grandgirls and yes, I have shed a few tears BUT the car is packed and we are ready for our grand trip across the country. We are so blessed to have this adventure and we are so excited! I found out yesterday we are going to be living in Happy Valley, OR. I took it as an omen. I start at the hospital 4/24 so we plan to see everything we can see by then. WESTWARD HO! I'll keep you posted. Joey

Everyone should drive across the US once. It gives you a real sense of how large the country is. And a deep appreciation for many of the different areas. What route are you taking?
Safe and fun trip!!! Marianne |

Noe it is JOEY TIME! Enjoy all of the sites, and post pics when you can.
God Bless

Ooooops! I misspelled the word "now." I just don't understand how this happens. All of the letters of the alphabet are on the keyboard. Why random keys jump up and misspell my words beyond me. LOL! (Operator error) LOL!
Bless you friend and farmsister.

Well, I know where Sunny Valley, OR, is but I don't think I've heard of Happy Valley, OR. Where is it?
Here's wishing you a wonderful trip with lots of great memories. Keep us posted on your travels.
And welcome to OR!

Godspeed, my friend! Have a wonderful journey and if you can, please post lots of pictures! And just remember not to drive faster than your guardian angel can fly! ;) You'll be in my thoughts and prayers! Best of luck to you both!
