We were home by the 1st of April this year, a week earlier than usual. April was cool here so not a lot of outside work got done, but during this month we made the decision to sell our lovely little place here by the creek. 

May and June were busy months, cleaning, decluttering, getting rid of stuff we really no longer need nor want in preparation for the market. 

Michel had a fall from his ladder from the top of the gazebo early May which bruised his ribs and scratched him up pretty badly, as you can see it is all concrete!! This set him back a few weeks of so. He was quite a bit of pain for a while.

We listed our place on Thursday, June 1st on Kijiji and Castanet (Kelowna) and on Monday the place was sold. Full asking price, the first person to come look at it. What a shock that was! 30 day possession.. even more of a shock. Now we really had to get busy, packing, cleaning, garage sales (2) (more like give aways) and two loads to the dump. WOW..

That is not the end of the story.... we also had to find a place to live until we head south in Mid October. (furnished no less). We are very blessed to know wonderful people in this little city (which I might add, we will miss ALOT). A friend Dave has a destination trailer in Fort Greenwood he is not using and he agreed to rent it to us. So we will be able to move in July 1st. All our stuff is in storage in a 20 foot container and Daves place has basically everything we need.
