67 days and counting. This is getting freaky! There is no backing out. We must move forward.  Our final punch list is on the refrigerator door. We are working the plan now!
It is kind of scary to think that in 67 days we will leave our home and not come back to stay for 15 months! Who does this kind of thing? I guess we do...

The latest news:

Dan Ruegamer is confirmed to live in our house while we are gone. He requested a queen size bed so we made the purchase and set it up! Doesn't this look nice? I even cleaned out the closet and vacuumed under the bed! He will see it for the first time set up like this on Sunday so I hope he likes it.

Kermit is up at the boat with Paul Bates waxing Paul's boat (turnabout is fair play since Paul helped Kermit wax ours). They will put a third coat on our boat.

Launch scheduled for Wednesday May 9, weather permitting. Keep your fingers crossed that the through hull holes poked in the boat for the new generator, windlass, and other assorted equipment hold while Kermit and Paul move the boat to Venetian Marina, our summer home.

In a short while I will be publicizing this blog in a big way. That is on the punchlist - target date for big publication is beginning of June. Talk to you later! Katherine
