Before leaving town this week I took what's starting to be one of my favorite walks in the neighborhood up to Hobcaw Creek and watched the sunrise. Great way to start the day!
Then a quick trip to Houston to check on the house, meet with the boss and pick up Gem. It was a little bittersweet. I loved seeing all the places I recognize and have been to a million times and have so many memories of, but it was a bit sad too. Gem didn't seem to recognize me at first I guess since I've been gone for over 6 weeks but she quickly warmed up and I took her on a walk one more time around the old neighborhood. The next day we boarded our flight to Charleston and she connected with many of the passengers.
Once in Charleston and at home she took her time to sniff every room and then laid in front of the
fireplace as if giving it a thumbs up. 
It was a long day for her and she had a lot of sleep to catch up on.
The next day I picked up my bike from the bike shop where I had dropped it off for a tune up and took her for a ride around our new neighborhood. I can tell she's going to be a rock star here as well. Everyone that sees her smiles especially when she's sitting in the basket on the front of the bike with her ears blowing in the breeze.

Jake and Gina came over the night we got home and brought us Chinese food for dinner. They told me the big news, their baby to be is going to be a boy! I am so excited about the two grandchildren I am going to have in the coming months. I know it's going to be life changing and this Charleston house will play a good role in bringing family together.
