Our house went on the market in early April. Six days later, we received an offer! We countered, he signed, and the journey began. The home inspection and appraisal have been done. Our realtor got an "okay" back from the appraiser, meaning we didn't have anything to worry about, and, so, the packing begins. We should be closing some time during the upcoming week. It has all happened so very fast. Andy and I are kind of in a whirlwind right now. With the closing happening really soon, we had to find a place to live for our last month in Alaska. We'll be staying with our good friend, Kellie. It will interesting to see how Cooper does around her cats. Our belongings will be shipped down to Salt Lake City on May 30th. The truck will be shipped soon after that. We'll fly into Seattle around the second week in June, pick up the truck, and make the drive to Utah. Cooper will have to fly on the airplane, too. The doc better have some good drugs for that trip! So that, in a nutshell, is what has been going on lately.
Oh, I forgot to mention that we got 16 inches of snow last Friday. After a week of sunny skies and temperatures in the 50's, I think we were all in a state of depression. It seems to be melting pretty quickly, though.
We hope everyone is doing well. To all of our family and friends down in the Lower 48, we are really excited to be closer to everyone. To all of our "family" and friends in Alaska, it will be hard to say good-bye but we look forward to our visits back to Alaska and your visits down to the Lower 48.
