Lorena loves to grow flowers. She did a vegetable garden last year in the Wilsonville community garden areas. She loves her vegetables but she is crazy about flowers. She bought a wrought iron flower box holder for our balcony and was very gratified her tulips bloomed before we left. She has already donated the flowers to Gladys, but hung on to the flower box holder. We hope to get some ficus trees for inside the house as soon as we get to Texas.
Day: March 5, 2016
This morning we packed all of the things we had accumulated from a year of fourth floor studio apartment living in Wilsonville, Oregon into a 5×8 U-Haul. It is amazing how much stuff one accumulates, even in such a cramped space. Dinner is planned tonight with our dear friend Gladys followed by church tomorrow morning and evening with Grandpa Milo and Grandma Sarah. After that, we are off to Texas.
It has amazed us how everything worked out for us to return to Oregon, but then nothing worked out after that for us to stay. We are not too excited about spending too much more time in an apartment so we are working hard to find a house where we can settle down for the long term. In the meantime, we look forward to some time with Christian in Tempe next week.
