Heading Home

I'm still on vacation...not sleeping much, but still going strong. We will be heading for home today. As much as I love vacations, I love getting home too.

This has been a very productive trip. We've gone to many cities that I've been curious about and even have found a business venture to consider. We've been able to pretty much narrow down areas/cities that we are interested in moving to within the next year or two. Although I love Oregon, I liked Washington the best. Of course, my hubby likes Oregon better...figures, sometimes we are just on the opposite ends of the spectrum. It will be a miracle if I can get him to move out of California at all. Only time will tell.

We're in Hood River right now, with a great view of the beautiful Columbia River Gorge. Yesterday it just rained and rained. It feels good to finally enjoy cooler weather instead of the constant heat of home. I'm loving it! How's the weather in your part of the world these days?

(Have any of you read about the O.J. verdict? It looks like the law finally caught up with him...finally!!)

Sounds beautiful! I wish I could go on vacation & see those states as well. I haven't been to too many places...
Troy & I stayed up last night & watched them read the verdict. I was so glad. Finally- he gets what he has coming to him.. Hopefully he'll get a little more once he's in for good!!! :)

Glad you've had a good time. It's much cooler here and rainy. I did here about the OJ trial. He's finally caught!

Jan, it sounds like you have been seeing some beautiful land. I did hear the verdict this morning. I thin it is do time!

Love Washington!!!! Oh, I so hope some nights of good sleep are in your immediate future!!!!! Glad the trip has been helpful. Me and my hubbie are the same - so exasperating sometimes!!

i did hear the verdict, linda... i just hope he's not able to appeal on the basis of a biases jury!!!
i hope you are nearing home by now so that you can settle in and get some rest. i'm thrilled your trip has been fruitful and you've enjoyed the cooler temps:) it's been really nice here... highs in the 70's lows in the 50's.
love,
dani

Sleep is a good thing. Hope you get some soon. LOVE LOVE LOVE Washington. It is my home state. I miss it very much. Acutely so after reading this post. ENJOY for the both of us. m

So Colorado's out? :(
Well, hopefully you and your husband will come to an agreement soon. Glad you had a good vacation other than the lack of sleep!
There was snow on our mountains this morning. I'm not ready for that.
Have a great week.
God bless,
Brenda :)

I've never been to that part of the country but I heard it really is beautiful :)

Looks like you've enjoyed a wonderful trip! Hope you get caught up on your sleep soon! ha ha

Have a wonderful week, Linda!

You need a nap! What a wonderful trip.
OJ...maybe we won't have to hear about him for a few years now.
