we finally made it home!
It’s official – the Schutzes are no longer onthemove! Yesterday, with the help of our fabulous agent, Kavita, escrow closed on our sweet little house in Montesano, WA, and we are home at last. The past two years leading up to this day were some of the most exciting, disappointing, beautiful and bitter years of…
not that one… this one
Two weeks ago, we made the sad decision to pull out of the contract on the house we wanted to buy in Cosmopolis. The inspection brought to light a ton of pricey repairs – the main one being the roof. Three different roofing companies estimated between $20k and $35k to remove the cedar shake roof…
it’s really happening!
Just a quick update for those who are curious… This year’s winter has been a little trying – even though we’re in coastal Washington, it’s still colder than we’d expected for longer than we’d expected, and navigating that cold while living in an RV is a little difficult. But we’re making do, enjoying the views,…
planting progress
Last time I posted, I shared that we’d taken some important first steps towards planting in the Aberdeen/Hoquiam area. Once Deron settles into his job, our next step will be to look for a house in earnest. (So far we’ve been taking notes on different places on the market, and refining our “must-have” list, but…
hunting for home in haa-kwee-uhm
What a great first week here in Hoquiam! Last Sunday we attended Harbor City Church, and we really liked it! The worship and message were great, and we had a nice long conversation with DJ at the connections booth, and with Melanie when she called a few days later. We’re eager to continue attending (there’s…
we’re home! (probably)
Current status: we’re finally “home” at an RV park in Hoquiam, Washington. Deron has applied for a few part-time positions at the local Home Depot, and we’re about to try out our first church, Harbor City. There are some cute houses on the market, but we probably won’t really start looking to buy until after…
this time it’s for real (maybe)
We’ve had a really great time these last few weeks in San Diego (more about our shenanigans in a minute), but we’re eager to start our next journey, so we broke the RV out of storage this afternoon and started the long process of packing up. After finally finding some fabulous fish tacos at Momentos…
closing the door on 2022
Well, as we say goodbye to last year and step into 2023, we find ourselves just a few weeks away from what we’re hoping is our final trip back up the coast. In the meantime, we’ll be keeping ourselves busy with several fun events and a few more weeks of work. Here’s how we closed…
coming out of retirement
It’s been a crazy few weeks here in San Diego! Our RV is safely parked in the yard of some wonderful friends while we’re temporarily planted once again in our dear friends’ extra house, and Momma Schutz has joined us here as well. I agreed to come “out of retirement” and take on the temporary…
all the food, all the fun, all the family
What a fabulous treasure this past week was! We spent three days in San Carlos where Deron’s sister, Stephanie, wined and dined and entertained us in the best way, and then after two days of travel we arrived safely in San Diego yesterday afternoon. Food: Wednesday evening featured four types of homemade pizza – all…
