Many Thanks! Next Stop...Somewhere West of Here!

Many thanks to the folks kind enough to send a few bucks to the "Martello Relief & Relocation Fund." I have always had a hard time asking for help, especially money. With all that has happened in the last few months I'm a bit more accepting of the fact that sometimes people just need help. You have all been so supportive and generous I can't thank everyone enough.

We've managed to find of a workable solution to the loss of the loan from the bank and we are now more than ready to head west. Just another way we're both feeling that this is all meant to be I guess. That "one door closes, another opens" thang. If all goes well we'll be able to make the transition as smoothly as you can expect. Keeping fingers crossed.

We head out Friday. Kansas City should be the first stop. Then...Denver. Soon thereafter, somewhere in freaking Utah, if not all the way home. We've got road cash (thanks again) and we've built in some time for a little bit of sightseeing if something pops up.

I'm so damned excited, frightened, and amazed all at the same time. I know I'll be back here soon to finish up contracts, but this is all so unreal. It became more real when the movers picked up our goods today and our storage unit was empty for the first time since April 4th.

All too much. All too exciting. All too tiring. Still and all, a complete and necessary positive change for both of us.
