Last Saturday, we all visited Mom & Dad's new place in Bend:
 |
| It was snowing--big flakes. |
 |
| Another view of the front | | |
|
This is the floorplan (below). Jamie, Barb, and Mom arranged the furniture on paper the morning before our visit.
The actual floorplan is the reverse or mirror image of the one above. Barb has it up to the window so that she can see the reverse.

| Entry | |
 |
| Kitchen (to your right as you enter the house) |
|
 |
| Great room with fireplace plus door to one of the balconies. |
 |
| View from the balcony off Dad's room. Cynthia, Mom's helper from Touchmark, told us that last year a deer wandered into the courtyard and spent several months living there. |
|
 |
| View from the other balcony...not so nice but we will put a potted plant in front to hide the air conditioners. |
|
 |
| Jamie and Mom--figuring out where to put the most important thing: the sewing area, of course. |
|
|
 |
| Robin, Mom's friend, and Barb measuring for the new couch. |

|
 |
| Dad's bathroom | | | |

 |
| Dad's bedroom--soon to become the MAN CAVE |
|
|
 |
| Laundry room with stacked washer and dryer | | |

Not captured in these photos are the three (count 'em) absolutely mammoth walk-in closets; they could be bedrooms in their own right. Heck, in Hong Kong, a family of five would be living in one of those closets! Additionally, there is a fourth very large closet in the laundry room. Mom will have plenty of room for fabric and quilting supplies.
More to come...
Looks spacious! Ted and I can't wait to see it in person. We're hoping to visit this summer - not sure when yet. Depends on some conferences that Ted has applied for over the summer. And a grant he applied to for research in Russia, also this summer.
