IMUSTUPDATEBLOGIMUSTUPDATEBLOGIMUSTUP......

WELL YOU GET THE IDEA.
It has been so long I think I forgot how to make picasa albums, which order I have to post pictures to have this make sense or even how much we have been doing and believe me it is alot!!
I'll figure it out. Everyday I blog in my head but after I let it go so long I didn't know where to start.
We are still in Washington, in the Muffin and into all the stuff we always have been.
John did a few more fixture installations than I as I was taking my Washington State Frerries training. (but it took so long for the Coast Guard to complete my background check that the summer season was 1/2 over and we had started a New Target Store fixture install that I guess I'll wait till next year and try.) I am NOT a security risk, I just have had to many jobs, in to many states under to many names ....hmmm.
We spent the 4th of July with John's Uncle Rich and cousins in Southern Washington and had a great time promising to keep in touch which as usual isn't happening.LOL
John has been really involved in local residential remodeling since the Target store completion in Sept and I am back doing upholstry .
While John and Ariel held down the fort I went back to Iowa and with the encouragement from Uncle Lee and Aunt Betty scoped out and bought a church.
yep just call me "Sista Flamingo".Next spring we start the restoration with Mom, Dad and any family and friends that are up for it. While there I got to see Ry and his family along with a few friends in Wis. No moss growning on this stone.
The Olympic Peninsula is still the beautiful and inspiring place we have been drawn to again and again so it looks as tho' this will be home for a while.
hmmm. John loves baseball so for him... Go Rays (just coz they are the Cinderella team).
and last but not least VOTE! I don't care who for (well I do but that isn't the point) JUST VOTE.
PARTICIPATE. It is fun and it makes you feel good.
There I did it, and now just to add a little twist starting November 1st we will be blogging on Have Tools Will Travel and Seamistress this will still be here and I will be filling in the blanks of photos and such but for the fun of it in a new home with our work being centered less on the travel and more what we are doing it'll be fun ...I hope.
As always Be Safe and Enjoy the Journey.

Glad to see your blog is alive!! Just went through 5 months back ground check with a gov job...i guess they prefer new combers as to the ones that have heritage here..O well,there lost and it makes me understand why we are in the mess we are in. On the brighter side..i'm looking forward in hearing about your new challenges ahead. Go Lynne & John...Ariel you look after them!!
