My beautiful spouse asked me to keep it simple and short. I will.

I am married to a grandmother of 11. We were living in Idaho, nearly 2,000 miles from our nearest grandchild. For you grandparents, you know that nothing else needs to be said. There was no other reasonable choice. We had to listen to our hearts. So, in December 2013, we made the move from Idaho back to our beloved Virginia.

Our About page describes the on-line home search. Finally, after over 40 years of marriage, we realized this was not to be a hurried hunt for “the house of our dreams” it was to be a careful quest for “the house of our realities”.
