Well folks, it’s for reals.  We’ve sold our house!  Our Mayflower United storage pods are delivered on Friday and we start loading.  We close on the 26th and have to be out that morning.  We have been trying to get out of this house for five years now…and now that the time is finally here to leave, I find myself sad.  What a bittersweet time.  Our first home…the only home Gage has ever known.  The place where we grew from a couple into a family…planted trees, sowed bluebonnets, painted…many times.  The list of firsts goes on and on.  I can’t help but sing to myself the words to one of Walt’s songs called “Down the Track” which he wrote when he and Tina moved from Nashville to Texas.

I couldn’t find a you tube video of it, so go buy it…you’ll understand the greatness.

One of my favorite lines…

“We left some nails in the wall and some marks on the floor.  Looks like we’re taking everything, but we are leaving a whole lot more when we go, down the track.”

Just go listen.

“Take one more look, leave a tear, say a prayer, bless the key.”
