There's a ton of excitement in our house right now - we have two things we're celebrating today:
- the successful sale of our Massachusetts home on Sierra Drive in Chelmsford, after owning it for 32 years. Chez Sierra was a really lovely home and neighborhood, where we hosted many friends and family members over the years.
These photos were taken on our final visit to our once-home. It didn't feel quite as sad as I'd expected, since we hadn't lived in it for about 15 years. It just feels like the end of an era ... I remember celebrating that we "owned a piece of America" when we bought it in our thirties.
- the other celebration is the 42nd anniversary of a Friday 13th, in which we:
- went for an early walk in a nature reserve, (Dale was barefoot), then
- signed our ante-nuptial contract in a lawyer's office, then
- shared a pizza, then
- eloped at the registry office in Durban after retrieving a pair of Dale's sandals from the car. No rings, no witnesses, no special outfits, no flowers, no photographer, no fluff.
