I'm here too! (well, sorta-here)
We're moved into our new place.
It has like 15% less square footage than the old place, yet it really really seems to *work*.
I really like it.
I hadn't thought about it, but the last place was in an "island" of suburban apartments & homes wedged into a commercial/industrial (?) district...
...but here there's residential streets we can walk for mind.
Well, the younger goofball has written "pudu" on a notecard 10 times, so I hafta show him a pudu video(s) as per our prior agreement!
Wanted to say hi and be chatty about the pace of life around here!

Thank you!
So far, a lot is good as far as things being pointed in that direction.
Also, typo in my above post. Should say "walk for miles," not "mind."
"People without hope not only don't write novels, but what is more to the point, they don't read them.
They don't take long looks at anything, because they lack the courage.
The way to despair is to refuse to have any kind of experience, and the novel, of course, is a way to have experience."
-Flannery O'Connor
"In spite of much that militates against quietness there are people who still read books. They are the people who keep me going."
-Elisabeth Elliot, Preface, "A Chance to Die: The Life and Legacy of Amy Carmichael"
Not sure which part of eastern Arizona you will be Cord but near Benson Arizona southeast AZ is Kartschner Caverns which I have heard is amazing. I wish I would have had a chance to see them while I was still in AZ
