This is my new home, or at least it will be come March 5th!
What happened??? I live in Sunnyvale, CA... my husband has always wanted to live in Hawaii, I knew that... what I didn't know, when we went on vacation in October 2011, was that I would own a farm in Captain Cook on the Mamalahoa Highway with 650 macadamia nut trees, 42 avacado trees and over 600 coffee trees 40 days later!!!
So here's the deal, John said we needed a change, I challenged him by saying if we needed a change to get a realtor to show us some properties while we were on vacation and before I could say "Aloha", property tours were on our agenda. (Note to self: Don't challenge John in the near future). We made an offer before we left the island and closed escrow November 30th.
Then came the craziness of telling family, friends and my employer and starting to get our house in California ready to sell, our belongings and pets shipped and just figuring out the logistics.
Long story short, John left for our new home on February 6th to be there to receive our belongings and I will join him in 3 weeks in time for our 20th anniversary! Meanwhile, our house here in California is on the market. Stay tuned to follow this adventure and the saga of being a farmer's wife and finding out if "island fever" is a real thing! Mahalo for joining me...
