Movin' on UP!!!

We're moving!
YAY!
....and BOO.

We found a darling little community of houses on the N/W side of town on a hill with a peek of the ocean. Our unit is on top of the 4 car garage and we couldn't be happier. No more 2 ton fairy elephants prancing over our heads at night.

I will miss Mario though. He has a been a fair and accommodating landlord. I will miss gardening with him. I will miss him telling me tales of WW1 and his adventures on the seas as a merchant marine. I think the bird will miss the peach tree too.

The new place is cute, a little smaller and has a well tended garden. Maybe a bit over landscaped for me to do any "farming" but there is room for containers and I can live for a while with a much less maintenance yard for now. Fresh tomatoes, some basil, garlic and a few pepper plants will keep my hand in as it were. In the mean time we will have bunches of light and NO roar of Gaffey!!! We will even have the YMCA near enough to walk to.

I hope our neighbors are nice people.
