Life for us is going to take on a new adventure. We sold the garage door business to a younger couple,and they are also buying the farm with it. The office and shop are on the farm so we were glad that they were taking the whole farm.
Why did we sell? Well, we started the business when the boys were all home needing something to do. They are all grown ,going their separate ways. Hubby isn’t in to hiring,just don’t need that headache,he says.
We purchased a parcel of land in the mountains of Tennessee awhile back,now we are looking at restoring the little house on the hill that has been sitting empty for a good 15 years.

The side walls were done like this.

I started with removing the old drywall, it’s a messy job!

We will be living in our camper for a year ,first to give some assistance to the new owner in running the business,and then it will let us work on the old house at a more leisurely timeline.
Some views of the place…





There’s much work to do with clean up,but it will be worth it as it is a beautiful place of wild country.

I have a feeling that my old quilts and the old house are going to be happy to be together.
Enjoy your remodeling project! Hope everything works out for you.

Deb I am so excited for you. The area you are moving to looks spectacular. Demolition sounds fun to me. I hope you have time to put some stitches in your beautiful quilt. It may allow you a chance to take some deep breaths and de-stress. I wish you and your husband the best in this new adventure in life.

I’m excited for your new and upcoming adventures now you’re in retirement! ❤

Don’t feel bad, I’m not to far behind you. I’ve blogged very little this last while, if I do it’s very short. We are looking forward to our adventure together, we have been so busy with raising children ,keeping the business going during our 34 years of married life it’s now time to just enjoy each other!
