Now we have this
in our future, where we saw the heron take off, and the red-shouldered hawk circle and call out.And we have this:
and this too:
It's all more splendid and beautiful than we had ever hoped. We're not even sure what to do with such grandness, but it will be our life's work to figure that out!
Yes, we are now doing our happy dance. You can all uncross your fingers and toes, and everything else you've had crossed for us. Thanks to all of you, it worked. We found a home.
OMG - it's beautiful! Congratulations, you two. When's the housewarming party?
ReplyDeleteNAMASTE! you are blessed and I am smiling for you!
ReplyDeleteYEA!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! The property is beautiful beyond what I imagined. Oh, happy, happy day!
As I looked at the photos, the thought occurred to me that the previous owners probably loved their spot very much and must be happy to know that it's being bought by folks who love it as passionately as they did.
I look forward to all your tales and photos as you and the land become entwined. Again, a heartfelt congratulations. One last move, guys, and you're home for life!
Wow, that seems perfect! So happy for you. That pileated was a good omen indeed. :)
ReplyDeleteAWESOME!!!!!!!

ReplyDeleteBEAUTIFUL!!
I AM SO HAPPY FOR YOU TWO!
It's perfect! It's you!
ReplyDeleteThat first photo; I don't know how to express it ... it's a place you can be and do and dream, a place for friends or to sit quietly alone, except for the wild things.
Lovely!
Right ON!!!! I knew that woodpecker was a good sign, with its happy raucus call! This looks like a wonderful new home.
ReplyDeleteCongrats!

ReplyDeleteFantastic! Can't wait to hear all the stories.
ReplyDeleteWhat town is it in?
The address is in Grass Valley, but it's outside the city limits by about eight miles. It's got a lot of water, which is most important to us. We're pretty happy about it.
ReplyDeleteI hardly need say it, but we here at the R. House are so very happy for you two. It does look like a perfect spot for the two of you. Can't wait for you to move in and make it your own.
ReplyDeleteI'm doing the happy dance, too!
