Making the move.

The Florida home is finally up for sale and must be turned into cash before we can begin building our adobe home in New Mexico.  Most of the maintenance here in Florida has been completed but some finishing touches still remain. (Are they ever complete?)  There is lots of interest in our beautiful home but no sales contract yet.  (Click on the link above for a virtual tour.)  We love our home here, near the beach and so many 'beachy' activities, but we are also anxious to move closer to our grandchildren and get back into the mountains of the West.  Every day we keep thinking, maybe this is the day we will get that acceptable offer.

The final drawings for the adobe have still to be completed, although the design and layout is.   The living space will be approximately  1500 ft², with loads of southern exposure for passive solar heating in the winter.  We have a long list of possible sub-contractors and can't wait to get started.  Of course we can't do much more without an acceptable sales contract in hand.
