Long ago and far away
Comments(3) Hello, everyone,
I’m going to see if I can manage the self discipline to write on this blog at least once a week.
I have moved from the Sonoran Desert of Arizona to the Pacific Coast in Ventura, California. Check out my view:
The days when we have strong sun the view is even better. Some days we can see all the Channel Islands.
We are really struggling. The fog comes sweeping in. Forget little cat’s feet. This is a theatrical curtain. Summer comes in bits and spurts. Some days we have six or eight hours of glorious sun. Some days it’s cloudy.
I count myself very lucky to have such a wonderful view and such a mild climate. The desert was a place of extremes. Being ten blocks up the hill from the ocean is a dream of temperate consistency.
Since I moved from a three bedroom house with a three car garage to a one bedroom apartment with A parking space, the adjustment has been interesting.
I’ll try to begin posting quilt books and magazine collections for sale in the next month. I would like any feedback and inquiries if you are looking for a specific book or magazine.
Hi Thelma, good to “hear” you again. Congrats on getting the house sold and moving to a sort of paradise. My god daughter recently moved to Ventura from Washington State and just loves it.
I don’t envy the downsizing effort though…
Hi Thelma,
I have been wondering how you are. Sorry to hear you are struggling. I hope the temperate climate is helpful to you.
Can’t imagine what it must be like to have to down size like that. Best wishes.

Hi Thelma, I hope you moved purely because you wanted to and that you are loving the new digs. Certainly is a lovely view. Where will you be posting your things for sale? Best of luck.
