dropping in-- saying hello...

Well hello to all the O'Sullivans and relatives. Ed Siemsen here. Stephen said it would be OK for me to drop a line or two. Unfortunately I tend to babble. Some may know that my family have moved to WA state from RI. You can catch my trip in my blog at.. http://edstrips.blogspot.com it was a trip I wished I could have done in the summer with my wife and son, but with gas prices the way they are I'm glad it happened when it did. Well I said I would drop a few lines or so. As some may know my wife is from here and pretty much since we arrived in New England she has been begging to come back------ I folded. 15 years is a long time to say "NO nows not the time". Unfortunately the time I said yes was a really bad time. The house market crashed about the same day we signed the contract to sell. We lost our shirts and a few under garments on the house but were making up for it on this end. It was good to have my family together. It was starting to really get to me-- as my real estate agent and work friends will contest to. Any way we are actually living in the RV that is in the pictures. Its been cozy for about the first 3 days. Now its dreaming of when I was alone in RI with no family--- just kidding. I usually sit outside even in the rain so I could think, relax and just keep my sanity in tack.
Well you'all are invited to drop me an e-mail if you would like at edsiem@gmail.com i'll keep checking this lovely blog that BBS has slapped together. Its time for me to step outside and change my mind. -- WOW a bald eagle just flew over. This past weekend-- bears in the park up the street and a few weeks ago a cougar spotted on a trail I was going to hike on and one walking down the street. Life in the mountains-- i'll stay inside and suffer for the moment-- sitting in a chair outside would be like serving up a side of beef for what ever is walking by.
Any way hope all is well with all. Catch ya soon.
