Plans to move



The house is for sale/rent; one car up for sale; some items sold; other items are packed in boxes; a ga-zillion moving bids are on my emails; friends looking for a home for us; and I think we plan to move from Florida to California, back home where we spent 21 years before moving 7yrs. ago to Florida.

This is our 5th move across the U.S. Always return to CA. I think it's the Mohave Desert and the mountains, the cactus, the dry air, the Pacific coast, the beauty all around, plus the friendly people. I'll keep you posted on our journey.

For now here's some verse from a hymn we sang this past Sunday:
"IN CHRIST THERE IS NO EAST OR WEST, in Christ no South or North; But one community of love, throughout the whole wide world.
In Christ shall true hearts everywhere, their high communion find; God's service is the golden cord, close binding human kind.
In Christ is neither Jew nor Greek, and neither slave nor free; For men and women live in God, and all are kin to me.
In Christ now meet both East and West, in Christ, meet South and North; One joyous, true community throughout the whole wide earth."
by John Oxenham, 1908 alt. and St. 3, Laurence Hull Stookey, 1987

Carol, thank you so much for coming by my blog. I'll be sorry to see you leave Florida. I've only lived here not-quite-2 years myself. It has it's pluses over my home state of Ohio in the wintertime.

Thanks for the kind words. I really needed them today.
