Leaving for Oregon

I'm pulling out tomorrow morning after three months hosting at a Washington State Park. It's hard to leave. Been such a great experience. My official day was over the 30th but I stayed to help train a young lady who never done this before. She is doing well, so I'm leaving for Oregon to make my week's worth of appointments and visiting. It's real hard to leave while grieving. I lost my 15 1/2 year-old kitty yesterday. She became ill again this time had to make the decision. She is being cremated and will be given to me in a hand carved rosewood box with a paw print in clay and a tuff of her hair. She will be ready when I return. I have hosting assignments booked up for the next year into next September. Only March is free right now (except my time in OR.) Have a good weekend. I'll touch basis soon.

Thank you. I think next fall I'll go back into a house. Hoping to have property then.

@noni1959 You will be busy, and I know that does help somewhat. It's just so hard when they are part of our family for so long.
