A FORK IN THE ROAD

Now that the move is nearing reality we have had to take a hard look at our plans and face a few facts. While not yet stewing hens neither are we spring chickens. We need access to medical professionals to keep us healthy and a reliable connection to the outside world. Unfortunately, the original location of Blue Moon Farm has limited medical services and no roads out. It is however, stunningly beautiful and I hope one day some of you may stumble upon it as we once did.

So here we are, at the last minute, looking for somewhere else to live.  Vancouver Island has become the destination of choice, specifically the Comox Valley. Day 1 of house hunting has gone well although I think the realtor is a bit spooked. I told her we were not buying a house but a garden with a house attached. Her struggle to keep a straight face was magnificent, I was truly impressed. Only the facial muscles tightening and the wide eyed stare gave it away. Up at the crack of dawn tomorrow for more house hunting fun.
