It is with mixed emotions that we have contracted with a realtor to put our home
for almost 30 years, up for sale. We put a great deal of love and effort into
this place and enjoyed every moment of our time here. From the time when we decided to build, to our detailed planning of the total structure, to hiring the
architect and builder and finally moving in, has been one of our greatest adventures. We have cherished our relationship with the Gravagnes, our neighbors
and have watched their children develop into fine young adults. The skiing in
the winter and the hiking in the mountain so nearby has been a luxury that few
people can enjoy on such a regular basis. It is difficult to let go of such a
satisfying existence but there comes a time when the current chapter is complete
and a new one awaits to be opened. I know it can't be as fulfilling as the stay
here in Sandia Park but what else can one due when old age is a daily reminder and Father Time is feverishly knocking at the door. Take it from this ancient
mariner that it's true," time and tide wait for no man." Don't wait for tomorrow to do the things you want to do or see now. Annabelle and I have always tried to
set short term goals and still prepare for the future. It has worked for us these 40 decades together and we're going to make every effort to stretch this
out just a trifle longer.
We had our first contact, a couple looking for a home for their daughter. They certainly liked our home, darn it!
