This is how it goes...

We've finally arrived in Washington after a wonderful, relaxed trip North through California's wine country and into Oregon to visit Josh's Mom and Sister's Family.  We've set up camp in a small area called University Place.  Right off the Sound near the Narrows Bridge.  

Mt. Rainier catches us off-guard when we're out and about and it's so beautiful it seems fake.  We've got a walk out apartment in a cool complex.  We're constantly scouring the houses for sale so when the time's right, we'll have a great idea of what exactly we want.

Everything (well most everything) from LA arrived, and our two shipments from Korea as well.  Cable is set up and we were rollin' except for one thing...

Josh ended up having to get an emergency appendectomy yesterday for a ruptured appendix.  They were hoping he'd be able to leave the hospital today but his progress is slow to zilch so they're keeping him at least another night, possibly more.  He still can't keep food down and when they put him under during surgery, his intestine sorta quit working so they've got a tube going through his nose into his stomach to try and wake it up.  Because of the rupture, there was an infection in his abdomen so he's on antibiotics as well.

I will keep everyone updated as he progresses.  I'd suggest giving him a call in a week or so.  At this moment, he can't talk without pain so he just needs to relax.

Feel free to shoot me an e-mail or call if you want me to pass anything on to J.  

Love you all!!
