Okay, I should be packing and....lots of other stuff. But I'm doing a quick update. My immediate plans have changed just a little. What with my car problems, having the flu for two weeks and my neck crap I wasn't able to get myself packed and ready for my trip in the planned time. So, I'm still moving away from the ocean next week but am temporarily going to stay in the cutest little house in Portland. The price is right and the company (though I'll be living by myself) is good and I've always wanted to see what it was like to live in a large city. I'll have more time to prepare for my traveling adventure, which is good. Big changes!

I'm still not sure what my plans are anyway. Hopefully I'll be doing some work around Washington for a while and maybe just making short trips. And I'll be heading back to Hawaii in July, returning just in time for my niece's wedding, so can't get too far away. Hey, I'll have a tan and be looking great for the wedding - cool! Ten days of sun, ocean, rain forest and checking out the other islands - life definitely has its good moments.

In the meantime, I hope that everyone is doing well. It sounds a little scary out there in the world right now and I feel a bit removed from it all at the moment. That is weird. Anyway, I've got to get back to packing and moving and will check back in soon.

deby p.s. I'm curious to know if my large photos are a pain when visiting my site, or if you like them big. Or are the smaller photos easier to look at? Help, I'm confused.
