Anchored for Now in the NW

We have been traveling full-timing for almost 8 years, and have always returned to Oregon in the summers to be with our family and friends. This year we returned at the end of November and will be staying until...well, it seems we don't know until when. Frank must have a total knee replacement and Oregon is where his doctors and insurance will be able to make that happen. We have patiently been waiting for the scheduling of a date, and finally we have gotten it---March 19th is the big day! Of course there are several appointments that will happen both before and after, but we are grateful we finally know the when!

Interesting the weather has been more than accommodating--no not FL or AZ, but with little rain, dreary skies and only one day of almost snow. This week temps will be sunny and in the mid 50's, we are thankful for the mild winter weather.



Frank continues to focus on and building his 442 Olds project car while waiting for surgery, and Dianne feels blessed to be working very part-time in her field of international adoption. We certainly are not bored, but do miss the company of all things "boomer"! But we know there is a season for all things and although we may not understand the "season" at hand for us personally--we do know it it is only for "this season" and we are okay with whatever that means for us today.

This leaves us at odds on to proceed with our "traveling blog", since that is not what we will be doing for several months. I have no problem keeping those who would like to know what's going on current with updates on Frank, but would also like to convey and/or find what might be interesting/unique blogging subject themes as well.

Hey we have complained about not enough quiet time, and now this may give us all that allusive time:P
