I haven’t had time for a MountainMartha.blogspot.com for
weeks!! We had a 30 day escrow and just
getting moved out and organized? Before the closing on the 31st of
January was a stretch. Our new owners of
Unit #1 at the Rivers Resort are a terrific couple who have DREAMED of a return
to the Sierras for years!! Scott and
Tammie Webb took over on February 1st and they will do just great
keeping the Resort running and thriving.
Scott is currently the General Manager of a camp in Sunnyvale / Santa
Cruz mountains and will continue with that for a few months.
Tom and I “hit the road” on Sunday the 9th of
February and are currently visiting family in Colorado until we figure out what
the next step of our retirement looks like.
We are interviewing several lifestyle choices while catching our
breath. This is our third “downsizing”
in the past 15 years so not quite as much STUFF, but still more than TWO
storage spaces can hold! I received a
Quisinart food processor for Christmas and see it as a SIGN that I will again
have a KITCHEN somewhere, sometime. The
rest of our belongings are in our Forester; it reminds me of the Beverly
Hillbillies of TV fame. All we lack is
the rocking chair strapped to the roof rack!!
Tom took an afternoon not long ago to move all of our doctor
appointments to the week of
the 9th of March so we will be back in
the area on the 7th or 8th. Our pastor has asked Tom to preach on the 8th
at Tuolumne UMC, our home church. I
guess that it is true that a minister, called of GOD, never really retires,
just enlarges his pastorate.
It seems so strange NOT TO HAVE TO RUSH while visiting our
families here in CO. I guess that is
what RETIREMENT is all about.
DO continue to call the 1800.514.6777 number and welcome our
new owners to your favorite vacation spot here in the Central Sierras. Tammie will be happy to help you plan your
vacation in your favorite cabin overlooking the beautiful South Fork of the
Stanislaus River. Better hurry though
because the week long rentals get to reserve their favorite cabins a YEAR in
ADVANCE; the same cabin, same week every year.
We also have several weddings this summer lined up for the stray
weekends. So do make that phone call
soon.
