Resurrecting my old blog, so I can track summer fun and the following nine months in Redmond, Oregon as I "become a farmer" according to my Mother.

Over Memorial Day weekend, Emil and I flew to Oregon to meet a very nice couple who live in a beautiful home. They are headed overseas and need a caretaker. Their animals consist of two llamas, three cats, four chickens, and several baby chicks.

We will move there in September and stay until mid-June. This amazing opportunity will give us time to fish, write, recharge our batteries and see if we like the area to live there year-round.

I will admit it's scary... and intimidating. Learning a new area of the country, making friends, looking for work, and caring for animals, But, it's an adventure. Something we both need and want.
