Sleeping Under the Stars

Knowing we were headed to a new home, we were energized and drove 900 miles from Boulder to Boise.  Just outside of Boise on the eve of Dave's 30th birthday we pulled off the freeway and took an old road into the dessert.  It was around midnight and no one was around.  We decided to set up a bed under the stars and finish the trip in the morning.  Neither of us slept very well, but we enjoyed looking up into the stars and wondering about the source of all things and the deeper meaning of life...

On Dave's 30th birthday we celebrated coming home to Bend, OR.  We were still frayed from the road and the turn of events, but we managed to find a wonderful home on the westside of town walking and biking distance to downtown, parks and trails.  We have four bedrooms in the house and a large sunny backyard.  There is room for guests, so please come visit!

Dave has been on Maui for three days now and I am settling here in Bend.  I spoke with Dave yesterday and he is enjoying reconnecting with everyone.  We are committed to trying Bend as our home for a year.  If things don't gel easily for us by then, we will be back on Maui.

Here are some pictures of our home in Bend.
