Finally -- in Victoria & Back on line!

We just now, this minute, got back on line! With Shaw, the Victoria cable company. We are living in the house, sort of, but we have to go, right now, and exchange the bed we bought, which is no good. More later. Back with more info (and the new bed). We moved into "the house" 4 days ago, on Tuesday. It's a small house on the end of a cul de sac, next to a park. Close to malls and next to the "Galloping Goose Trail". The "Goose" is a paved walking/bicycle trail that goes right downtown. We moved into the house in Victoria 3 days ago -- we still have a lot of unpacking to do and trying to find space for all our junk. Then there's a lot of cleaning, re-arranging, painting and fixing up to do. We got some laminate flooring to be laid in one room. We are going to change our Vonage number so it is a 250 area code, so people in Victoria & Port Renfrew can call us for free. That means it will be long distance from Georgia, CA, etc. Can't please everybody. It may take a few days to change, so it's still a local number in GA. We'll let you know what the new number is as soon as we get it. The land line here is: 250 385 7758, there's no message service. Snail mail address is: 425 Cecelia Rd. Victoria BC V9A 1C9 Canada Now we can blog any time again, so keep looking. Pictures soon, I hope. If you want to tell us something, put a comment on this blog, now that we'll be checking it regularly. email is still observer@islandnet.com

Port Renfrewwwwwww

Yes -- we're still here. But we do have plans. We are going to Victoria tomorrow to buy some furniture so we can move into the Victoria fixer-upper house. We will take a load of stuff, mostly stuff that's still in the van. Then, the following Sunday or Monday, we will actually MOVE IN. In the meantime, our contact numbers are still the same, for what it's worth. Manfred is not sick any more, but he still has a cough and is very weak. Somehow, I managed to NOT get it--whatever it was. This pic is looking out of the window of Bill's house (note the eagle on the post).
