I remember writing my first blog for this site over a year ago, as I sat in my kitchen in Medford, Oregon. Steve and Lucas were packing to leave for Western Australia in just a few days time, and the task of packing up our household and following them 2 months later loomed before me. I couldn't have possibly imagined any of what would unfold as we navigated life in a foreign country.
I remember telling our friends and family in the States that they could keep up with us and our lives in Australia via the blog I intended to write faithfully. For the most part, I kept up with it by posting at least one entry every month. It became something I enjoyed and looked forward to. Looking back over the past year, I'm so grateful to have that record of our time here, in addition to the other photographs that I have but didn't post on the blogsite.
Now, I am telling our Australian friends that they can keep up with us and our lives in Oregon via the blog I intend to write faithfully. We all have friends here that we will miss and who we want to keep in touch with. There is even talk of seeing some of these friends again some day; whose to say what other travels lay ahead!
As we push through our final days here our hearts are a bit sad. We'll hold Perth in our hearts forever.
Cheers.
