It was a long New Year's weekend and we were finally able to settle into the house. We arrived on Thursday night with a small truckload of additional furniture and household items and immediately got to work. The first order of business was hooking the range up. It came without an electric plug and that was first on the list as we had planned to cook dinner that first night. Two hours later and we were happily enjoying a pizza and salad in our new retreat. Over the course of the next few days, we were able to unpack everything, organize the kitchen, hang artwork, arrange furniture, and clean up the yard. We were even able to have friends over on Saturday morning for a welcoming champagne toast to the new place. There are still things to bring up and a short list of items to acquire, but as with any house, it will always be a work in progress.
