Aaron and I have spent the last few weeks saying goodbye to all our wonderful friends, while meticulously finishing all the details related to our move. We had an entire house to empty and clean before October 1st, vet appointments for travel, change of address, moving into a temporary living arrangement until our plane leaves, packing, sorting, shipping, on and on and on...
We did what we could to meet up for coffee or a drink at a bar. We've done our best to make ourselves available to the people who have made our lives so rich out here. We know that we will never see some of them again, but our lives are better for knowing them right now and we are grateful for every friendship we have made.
Some of our friends threw us a going away party. After everything was emptied out of our Sitka house, folding tables, food, and beer were brought in. We laughed and hugged and played beer pong. There was cake and shenanigans.
...but there were NO PANTS.
(At least, that was the goal...)
