Yesterday I received the long-awaited job offer that will allow us to move to Washington (the state), which is my homeland. Tentatively beginning August 15 I will be a part-time microbiologist for the Health Department for Skagit County. So part of what I predicted is coming true. I doubt we’ll buy the house in Bow, like I predicted, mostly because it’s out of our price range with me only working part-time and I’d rather have land that has some topography. Much of Bow is in the delta region, which is flat as the proverbial pancake or Kansas, take your pick. Instead we’ll likely live near Stanwood because logistically the commute would be better for Dave and still very tolerable for me. Most importantly that’s where Clipper’s stable is located — at least until our kids are birthed, the property is properly fenced and a barn is built. Clipper will be spending several years at this stable. Let the fun of selling a house and moving two states away begin!
Speaking of Clipper, look at that cute boy!
