Yes We're On Our Way!!!

I may have confused people in previous posts because things have been SO difficult for us, but YES we are on our way to our new house on South Padre Island. The 28th or so.

Now we do NOT want a bazillion people coming over with casseroles and pies when we arrive. No, we want to sneak in silent as church mice, and get the feel of the Island first.

It is as if the Lord wanted me to write a slightly more complex, convoluted novel instead of a short story about "moving to South Padre."

But yes, we're packing right now.

Sam, we're envious! Just got back from another wonderful week at SPI. Everything was perfect (well, maybe not that dredge material on the beach where we always stay). It was sunny and dry and the big summer crowds had not yet arrived when we left on Sunday.
I seem to remember from one of your posts some time back that you bought a house on Oleander street. We happened down Oleander couple of times but did not see anyone moving in. Thought we might run into you down there.

Real estate prices keep climbing. And we thought it was expensive 5-10 years ago! Good luck with the rest of your move.

Hey island Wannabee,

haven't made the move quite yet - a few delays but Tuesday 6/28 is the day. As to buying a house 5-10-15 years ago, we with we did that too. Lots were $20,000 and now they're like a hundred - that's 50 x 150. Look us up at 220 next time!
