sights and sounds. Cats generally don't like change, but their curiosity gets them going quickly. I hope you are all settled soon.

Laurie has a pretty good idea when the time'll be right to try him outside. Shadow goes out by herself from time to time but she prefers us to go out with her. We're settling little by little. Thank You!

Appears you my have gained some elevation? You have more trees now.

Laurie loves it here in the trees. I don't mind them.

Make the sky a little bit smaller looking but I'd rather have them than not.

Looks to me that you're proceeding as you can, as you decide what goes where. It is WORK.

Thanks for taking us along for the ride, my dear Allan!

adventures. The sky from the back yard and the driveway will have great potential for some wonderful sunrises and sunsets. Laurie is working hard.

I like this place. May you have as much joy here as at the former farm.

PS: I love those floors.

These floors are really neat. In late afternoon sunlight shadows fall upon them, like with Laurie's $29.00 cheap but effective hand truck on the kitchen floor.

And how nice for you to have the warm thoughts from those who came before you. Not enough of that these days. Good for all of you.

owners to leave you that manual.

Re KC settling in - I wonder if a new cat bed or small piece of furniture, a cat-specific happy surprise, might help her decide the new home has a real bonus just for her.

How close are you to places you'll want to shop, and to medical care? My rural relatives love farm life, but shopping and medical care are mostly 30 miles away.

Far as new furniture, he has a new litter containment system coming. Once it's set up we'll get some pictures. According to amazon, the "top entry kitty litter tray offers a functional and aesthetically pleasing solution to your cat's bathroom needs. With the top entry kitty litter box, everything stays inside and out of sight, and the enclosed design lessens the prevalence of unpleasant odors in the room, something that's sure to make everyone in the family happy."

We'll see how it goes.

We are much closer to shopping and medical care. That's one of the features we were looking for before moving. Where we were took twenty minutes to town and forty-five minutes to the larger city. Now a grocery store, gas station and dentist and other options are but five minutes or less; fifteen — twenty for greater choices. I can empathize with your rural relatives, but we needed a compromise.

You still have land and a farm, looks like. And lots of sky and trees … Everything looks perfect!

I have vinyl planking in my kitchen and dining room and I love it!

That, to me, would be very reassuring making the house your home. Got some elbow room and yet closer to places that won’t seem like a day trip. I’ll add my best wishes with everyone here and add that I’m so happy for you and Laurie, Shadow and KC. 🌺
