Well it looks like we have a good offer on the house.  If everything goes well, we should have the sale completed by the end of the month.  Now our only (non-meeting) connection to the area will be one or two more visits to the orthodontist–really just an excuse to go and visit Grandpa Milo, Grandma Sarah and our friends in Albany.  We loved our house and our time there, but it will be good to be able to get on with life here.
