On the Road Again

I love old houses and this one was a good place to practice the “handyman” skills. We were able to do a few updates and a few restorations and bring this classic back to life. It was time well spent and should allow this house to serve for many years to come.
It was a little bittersweet pulling out of the driveway today knowing it was for the last time since “closing” and the transfer of ownership are at hand. Time to move out of the way and get “Back on the Road”. A side benefit of this house renovation project was the location. It was within a short drive of the newest member of the Sayre clan.
Our granddaughter Willamina (Willa) Sayre was born June 2 and is doing well. Mike and Tracy seem to be enjoying the lack of sleep and the interrupted schedule that come with a newborn. Actually, Willa is very good and at 3 months is sleeping 8-10 hours at night. She even tolerates being held by Grandpa.
With assistance from one of Mike and Tracy’s neighbors we were able to spend 3 weeks visiting from just 2 floors away in the same building. Gave us a real chance to get acquainted. Our first stop on the road is just a few hours north of NYC. We can manage one more trip to see Willa before we get further away.
