Move out day

Today is a big day for Susan and me.  We have sold our wonderful home in Novato, CA and today is our move out day.  We are moving to a wonderful new home in Sonoma, and are really excited about that, but today is about feeling loss and sadness.

We have loved being in our Novato home and in beautiful Marin county.  We have lived together in Sausalito, then a condo in Novato, and lastly in a house in Novato.  We leave Marin now and are so grateful to all of our homes and to Marin county for being such a beautiful and wonderful place.  Sonoma is close by, of course, and we still have many deep ties to loved ones in Marin, so we will stay connected quite naturally.  

But, today, we feel a beautiful sadness, and also a quiet joy.  It is a very soulful time for us as we step away from an old life on our way into a new one.
