And So On

Happy Friday, everyone! It's rainy and chilly up here. We've got only a few plans for the weekend - nothing major - leaving time for us to reattach radiators, probably fire up old Bessie, continue working in the basement, and so on.

Over the past sixteen months, it's been a pleasure to relate to you the trivialities and tribulations of our lives here in the Ocean State and our progress as we worked to make our New-to-Us House a home. What's more, it's been an honor (and in truth, a smile-making surprise) knowing that many of you have taken a few minutes from your busy days to check into Provident Pilgrims to see what's going on with Rob and Sue.

As it will ever be, all things must end, and so it is with ProPil. Today's is the final regular post. The vast majority of our work on the house is complete. The excitement and anticipation of exploring a strange, new locale is past. Sue successfully graduated and landed a great post-doc position up here, and those were our primary aims for undertaking this adventure.

If a reason arises or an urge strikes, I may occasionally upload a picture or type up an update, but for the time being, ProPil's 311 posts will stand as a completed body of work. The site will remain accessible in its current form, unless Blogger succumbs unexpectedly to the foreclosure crisis.

Sue and I want to thank you, our readers, for your endless encouragement and steadfast support. We also want to assure you all... we're not going away.

Congratulations, Katie and Graham! Welcome to planet Earth, John Tristan!

It's snowing in NY/CT now.

I will miss ProPil. So long. Thanks Rob and Sue!
