This is our last morning at the lake. The early sun breaks pink through the fog, and the entire view from our porch is ethereal. We’ve enjoyed a great week with family in one of our favorite places. Lots of laughter. Too much food and drink, but that’s part of the fun. I’m ready to be home.
Home.
The word has a different meaning to us right now. Worth Street, our beautiful historic home in Munger Place, won’t be ours much longer. John and I have decided the time is right to sell. Our plan has always been to move home to Arkansas, and this will get us one step closer.
I am excited about this change, yet I will miss Worth Street and Munger Place. The house, neighborhood, friends, the convenience of fabulous grocery stores and Tex-Mex around the corner, my Promise of Peace garden.
For now, we are ready to be home at Worth Street.

Wow, I know about selling houses and moving. I’m glad you and John are following your dream, but sometimes that involves loss. Good for you for taking the step.
Thanks Laura! We are excited even thought its bittersweet. I hope to see you at Dairy Hollow soon?
WHEN??????? are you coming home to Arkansas? This makes me so happy.
Yes ma’am! Soon!!!
Life is all about change but the best is yet to come!
Good for you Talya. Arkansas is a wonderful place to live.
So proud for you.
Say whaaaat? You know, it seemed to me, and sometimes my seemings are wrong, but it seemed (there I go seeming again) you were spending most of your time in Arkansas during the last 12 months or so. Anyhoo, it will be great to have you closer to the H-P gang.
I agree Fay! Since I left the bank and began writing, I spend a lot of time going back and forth.
Hooray!? Yes, hooray!
Welcome back to Arkansas!!!!!! Fayetteville????
Yes!!
I’m so happy you’re coming to Arkansas!
Wow!! I wish I could buy your home @ Munger… I love it so, so much. I hope you’ll still visit Dallas a lot. A lot… right?!
Yes LindaLee especially at first. I wish you could buy it too. I pray it goes to someone who loves it and takes as good care of it as we have.
Your house looks beautiful. Good luck with the move.
Thank you Suzy!
I’ve been wondering if a sign was in the yard yet. I’m so glad you’re coming back this way! Also happy that you had fun at lake.
Welcome home. Enough said:)
I am originally from Texas, so moving to Arkansas was tough for me! I love the Dallas/Fort Worth area and I know you’ll miss it greatly; the longer I’m in Arkansas, though, the more I appreciate this state for all it has to offer. I wish you all the best in your endeavors! Wave when you leave, and we’ll welcome you when you get back!
Arkansas is home for me, so I’m ready! But yes, there are things I will miss and I’ll be back:))
Bummer. But happy for you. The garden won’t be the same with out your smiling face. Glad i got to know you. Had a great time in the garden. Until our paths cross again Take care.
Awe thank you Jerry! I’ve so enjoyed getting to know you and gardening next to your lovely plot!
