Shape your world

"It is something to be able to paint a particular picture, or to carve a statue, and so to make a few objects beautiful; but it is far more glorious to carve and paint the very atmosphere and medium through which we look, which morally we can do. To affect the quality of the day, that is the highest of arts." -- Thoreau's Walden

"On the Road Again...


...like a band of gypsies we go down the highway."

Well, in our case, it's not exactly a highway. It's six airplanes, followed by a 5-day highway trek across the US. We could have gotten there in four airplanes, but decided to take some decompression time in Waikiki on the way home.

It's always something to watch your belongings packed up into boxes, and packed into crates, and then loaded on a truck. It's amazing that despite moving 8300 pounds of stuff away, we are managing just fine with the four plates and saucepan that we kept behind while we wait for our scheduled departure.

With everything gone, you now have time to blog again, huh! It's amazing how little cleaning there is to do when nothing is there!

Amy! Those boxes and that truck look RIDICULOUS! I don't know how you do it with two little ones. I hope you are all doing well. I love and miss you all and I want to meet James!
