Okay Amy, I can help you with your goals:
#1 – Plant starts from my garden
#3 – We can be your bed ‘n breakfast; 65 miles to the ocean
#7 – “Don’t” consult Uncle Harold on this – please.
#9 – Mt. Hood in our front yard – 50 miles

assist you with skiing. I’ll pack the picnic.
#22 – my advise – come visit before adopting an animal

This is an awesome blog Amy. And I love the pictures as well. Joey’s sister Amy taught him how to dance as I remember, but he was Not into it. I hope you have better luck. Of course,that has been a few years back. I think you two are such a cute couple.
