We think that it might be fun to follow the progress of our new home, the Canvasback Handiranch. This curious title was coined by daughters, Meghan and Meredith, to poke fun at our "no-step entry and wide doorways" - features that are common to senior living. The house is located on Canvasback Circle; and, o

7 days until move in....

It seemed, at times, that this move-in date would never come----but it is almost here!  There is a flurry of activity, packing, changing our address, calling the cable people, getting furniture and ovens delivered, and finishing up all of the last-minute details.  We have made a number of trips, hauling boxes and more boxes.  One would think that we were almost finished packing and hauling.  But, every time that we think we have unloaded a closet, drawer or cabinet and we are near the end, oh no, there is another one waiting.  Two Men and a Truck will be here at 8 am on the 26th, and we will be ready.  Meghan, Meredith, Kevin, and many friends will help us on Saturday.  It is supposed to snow AGAIN and we gave our snowblower to Jeff who lives down the street.  The deal is:  if it snows, he has to plow our driveway.


The house numbers and a temporary mailbox are ready.....



and the welcome mat is out. 
There are many Mallards on the pond, but we have seen only one Red Head duck.  Isn't he handsome?

  1. Snow, a red-headed mallard? Lucky you! It sounds like such a great time for you two! Have a wonderful move and a great move-in day!
    Can't wait to see you and the house.
