Ahem. Just returned from another bliss-filled trip to the Pacific Northwest. The usual "It's a sign!" and real-estate blather ensued. Actually, I will admit it was a relentless barrage, without a single "Give it a rest already" from my beloved. More on the trip later. For now, let me just state to the world that in the limousine with us on our return was a gentleman who will be visiting the San Juan Islands in a few weeks to begin looking for property for his retirement. Need I say more?
