Hello! Anybody home?

It has been a while since I posted. That is because we haven't been traveling with Sadie. We have been living aboard full time... in one place... while we are building a new home. We have been living in the Ash Creek II RV park in Independence, OR since June. It is a whole different experience living in one place in an RV vs. going "camping."

For one thing, we have been able to meet some of the neighbors and share in their lives, rather than just say "hello." Most of the people in this park are either full time residents or they are summering in Independence and will head south when winter sets in. Soon, there will be students at the nearby Western Oregon University moving in for the new school year.

Our tenure here is due to end on October 17th, when our rent comes due. Our able contractor tells us the house will either be move in ready by then, or close enough that we can park Sadie in her new garage and live there until move in day.

So, travels with Sadie? Yes, there will be some coming up. We have been accepted to the SOWERs ministry. So, we will be able to go on the road in service to our Lord. Our first trip will probably be in the spring, after we are settled in our new home.
