Becoming a place of our own...

Mark was able to stay at our house in Duisburg during his latest business trip.  All the furniture was delivered in time for Mark to live there and he even have a high school friend come to visit who was also there on business.  One more business trip to go and then we all make the trip together.  It's hard to believe that it is less than 30 days away.  We have already had to say good-bye to some friends.  But, it is not permanent.  We'll be back...

Getting ready to go...



I think it is finally sinking in that we are leaving.  We sent our sea shipment of household goods today.  Packing for two years is harder than I thought.  Do we bring this?  Will we need that?  Will this fit?  Did you pack that?  It was nice to get it out of the way.  Now we can enjoy our 4th of July week-end!
