All moved in!

Weve finally got all moved into the new house. It’s all setup and ready to go, except a few parts of the kitchen, not bad for a week and a half. Weve got new rugs, since most of the house is tile or laminate, tons of wall space, and a nice big yard. Osu is adjusting well, although he wasn’t sure if he was going to be left here.

We went out exploring a bit this weekend. Nate got the bikes all ready to go, and Osu was happy to follow along. We started in our town and headed through the woods towards Mausdorf and then rounded back passed Godlricht and back to our house. Osu was pretty tired afterwards, but very happy. He is still recovering from the ride, which has made him run a little slower on our trip through the woods a different direction yesterday.

Currently, Nate is out in Austria. He’s headed down to Grossglockner, then driving the Grossglockner high Alpine road, and stopping in Hintertux to ski and head home. It is all for work, so he says J Nate will also be stopping in Innsbruck to get some cityscape pictures.

If all works out well we want to head to Strasbourg, France this weekend. The city looks beautiful and has a lot of history as well. But, you should read the history yourself; I don’t remember ANY history for very long.

The View Has Indeed Changed!

Greetings All!

This past weekend we made the move to our new locale in Ursulapoppenricht (yes, it's a mouthful).  We have actually managed to get a lot done in the last few days, although a lot of work yet remains until the pictures are hung, shelves are stocked, and things are organized.  Slowly but surely, things are getting accomplished, however. 

The picture at the top of the page was taken from the office/workout room in the new house.  We don't really have a front porch anymore, so I figured the most interesting view would make the best banner for this page.  Yes, that is a train that passes the house, but luckily, it is not a commuter line.  I've noticed that the train comes by two to three times a day, and also luckily, not at horrific hours.  You may also notice that we have no neighbors on this side of the house - just fields of corn, rapeseed plants and some other unidentified green stuff.  It's quiet (except for the train passing a few times a day), peaceful, and a nice change from the 'city life' of Parsberg. 

We'll start to update this blog a little more often as we get further settled in.  Finally, things are starting to calm down for us.  It's a nice change!
