Packing Up

Time for another adventure! I am writing this a bit early this week as Sunday we will be on the road. Taking the long drive down to Chamonix to do a bit of skiing, spend time with Auntie Claire and Matt, and get some long overdue winter gear from the first Patagonia store in Europe. 

Looks like they are easing up on all the Covid restrictions here, so that is good news. The war in Ukraine is worrying though. Fighter jets have been flying over, leaving from the NL and heading in that direction. They are prepping the port of Rotterdam to supply Ukraine. Who knows where all this will go. 

We had another house visit in Marquette - nice downtown duplex. Seems like a decent option, but there will be a bidding war. We were definitely excited about certain aspects of the house, like the location, nice layout, options, big yard, etc. The problem is that it just needs too much time and money put into it. Looks like we really need to find a simple, smaller single family home outside the peninsula. The practical side of things just really seems to be winning out in our process. If the rental income can't cover the upgrades that are needed, it just doesn't make sense to us. 

The storm took out more than just trees! Flowers too.

Amélie got to pick some of the ones that had blown down.

Our first February harvest!
