Last night we signed the papers, the builder signed the papers, and the realtor signed the papers, so it's official ... we are Oregon landowners, with a house on its way. :)
The four of us sat in the realtors officee and chatted like old friends. We told stories, laughed, sighed over the state of education these days, and started becoming friends. Friends #3 & 4. *grins*
We've already got an invite for July 3, 2006. hehehe They throw a neighborhood shindig (only about 2 dozen houses in the neighborhood) and everyone brings food, they BBQ and from their front yard you can see the fireworks. Then on the 4th, everyone drives over and watches the fireworks in Newport. hehehe
We've learned that our new neighborhood is FRIENDLY! Friendly as in be prepared for drop in guests (oh gads, I'm gonna have to start cleaning again! LOL), be prepared for dinner invites, be prepared to extend dinner invites ... etc. Personally, sounds wonderfully warm and I can hardly wait.
Today we head down the Oregon coast for night's stay in Brookings, then it's down to the Valley where we will pack, and pack, and pack, and pack. LOL! Come October sometime we will be heading HOME! Yes -- HOME! For home is where the heart is, and our hearts are here in Walport, Oregon.
