I’ve promised all of my readers that I’ll include you in the move we are making. Today is the day. St. Francis awaits wrapping paper and just the right box so that he arrives in New Orleans safe and sound, ready to take watch over my garden there when it gets going. One thing I can say about moving is that IT IS A MESS!!!!! There are no other words to describe it. Tension mounts at times and tempers flare when someone stubs their toe into a box, but we are all holding each other up and hanging on for dear life!
There are no more meals being prepared in my kitchen. The refrigerator has been thoroughly cleaned and prepared for loading on the truck. I cannot believe how many bits and pieces of things there are! I’ve always believed that the last 10% of packing is the worst and I know that to be true now. I don’t know what I would have done without the help of my dear friend, Evelyn, aka Angel Face by Mr. T. She has been miraculous!
So our adventure is about to begin. I’ll be posting as soon as things settle down a bit. I will continue being The Permanent Tourist and cannot wait to share my new home with you! Stay tuned!

Journey well and be safe! I doubt if my Honey will ever agree to venture to New Orleans — he was stationed nearby and said he saw enough. Anyway, I’ll have to live vicariously through your adventures as well as Emmeline 🙂 I am excited for you! take care.

Melissa, I will miss your postings. I have been coming to SSI for years, since I was a kid and learned things about it from your blog that I had never known. I met you at the Witches Hour event that Donna McP and Paige F hosted and have been following you ever since. Love the recipes and the photos. It’s been great. Good luck with your new venture.
