look out, here we come!!!
Well tomorrow is the big day, we will take off for Bella Vista and our long awaited house hunting expedition. Yep, we sold our house this monring. We didn't get what we had hoped we would, but it only took 3 weeks to sell and with the market the way it is we are on Cloud 9, maybe even cloud 11.
By this time next month there will be a moving van in front of our house loading our funiture for its move to NWA. Then I think I will change my sign on to Arkggma

Nita,
Can't wait to hear how your house hunt goes. You'll have to pass any tips along to the rest of us. With any luck we'll be going through the same thing soon. Except, we think we'll rent for a bit to become more familiar with the area. Our first order of business is to secure teaching jobs!

thanks, I will post as soon as we get back, later in the week. We did venture to BV last June to do some pre-lim investigating. Yes, getting teaching jobs would help.   For us, it is different, I am a part time Travel Agent that can work anywhere and Hubby is retired or semi anyway.
Will keep everyone informed.

If you want to look at No Central Arkansas look us up we can give you some tips, like don't buy river front land ! hahaha, Some realtor 5yrs ago tried to sell us a home site, and said oh don't worry this only floods every Hundred or two hundred years-guess what 100 years ago was 1908 ! OH NO WONDER!!
You will love the people and many great sites, to explore, The Natural State is one of the Best !

Well, we narrowed it down to 3 houses, because our daughter is involved in this as well she and her hubby will see them late Sunday. Then the decision will be complete. We should be moving about the middle of next month. Our first trip to AR for investigation was June of last year; we were actually in Bella Vista on June 14th and that will be just about our arrival date this year. We said we figured it would take us about a year; how is that for timing?
Thanks for all your good wishes, I will keep you informed as the decision is made, probably in about 4 days.
