Sold Our House!

Wow!  That was fast!  Last week we listed our home, Rocky Gardens, so we can move to Costa Rica.  Saturday a showing...Monday morning we got a call that we had two more showings.  Then a call comes in that the family that saw the house on Saturday was making us an offer.  John wouldn't budge on the price, said it was too early.  I agreed.  Wait...phone call...Yes!

When the people heard there were two more showings on Monday they agreed to our listing price.

What can I say...it is beautiful here.  We just needed to find a family that could see the beauty, have the finances and ready to roll up their sleeves to work!  It is a lot of work to keep this place looking nice.

The sun came out just for them on Saturday afternoon when they arrived.  All day it had rained but when they got here it was lovely.  Mom and their two little kids went right to the chickens before even coming inside and after viewing the house, they got to play in the backyard on the play sets.  Perfect!

I am a bit surprised at my reaction to the sale.  I really thought this would be more painful but it is not; I am excited!  See, this is my dream home.  The first time I saw the property I fell in love with it.  But I am ready to go on our new adventure, ready to build a new house.


Lots of great memories, Lots of great people!
It sure has been exciting living here at Rocky Gardens!
 
 
This land is blessed and put out a load of yummy veggies!
And many of you worked very hard to make it happen.
 
If you were part of Rocky Gardens CSA, thank you for all your hard work
 and being part of a truly amazing 11 years. 
Adios!
 
I will continue to post our adventure here.
