VY36-30Sep2008.mp3 Settling In. we finally have the whole family moved up to Copper Harbor. Well,
almost all. The horses are still in WI until we can make arangements locally.
This is one of the episodes where I realized I had missed important notes
after I had finished recording. I tried several times to re-record the show, but
in the end, I felt that the first try was the best, so here it is.
**** Last but not least - from the list at the end, I forgot Rick. Thanks Rick! The
whole team at LTC was the reason we postponed our move so that I could
finish my paramedic education before we moved up.
