A sort of sad note from Donnie.

"Our last day at the house, a bit sad."

"An nseasonably chilly, gray and damp day.  As we drove out of the neighborhood we encountered three deer, a jackrabbit and a roadrunner all standing beside the road, looking at us...a tear-jerking farewell of the sweetest sort.

 

The day was complicated by a flat tire on my car, meaning two trips alone, in the morning, in Linda's car before she came along in the afternoon for a fast look and a token glass of champagne.  Then, home to a new home."
