It's been a long while since my last post. I have been thinking about the blog but too lazy to post, I suppose. So here I am.
Where have I been? Well, let me tell you. Upper Michigan has been heavy on my heart the last five years, since my genealogy trip. I would consider it and then set it aside, only to revive it and again reject it. This past year, I made up my mind. I will move to Upper Michigan.
In October of '08, my best friend and I went up there to take a look at housing and to see what I could find. I did find a nice little cottage in Kincheloe that just took my fancy. And so yes, I'll be moving. My internal calender is set for April. Between now and then, I have to repair the damage from Hurricane Ike to my house here in Houston, then sell the house. Can I do this? I certainly hope so.
I have a small number of family members nearby in Kincheloe. The town is the size of a Houston subdivision. In fact, the subdivision I live in now is probably larger than the town. But it is so retro up there, so naive and innocent, that I can't turn away. No locking of doors or cars, no theft. People are very trusting of each other, and that is so new to me. It isn't the way of Houston.
And so this is where I will be retiring in April. No empty promises, but I will be posting here more often and hope to see comments from you.
