Tad & Darcy are here!
They got everything squared away and are now living here officially. We let them move in a couple of days early, since — well, why not?
We left a house-warming present by their door: a hummingbird feeder, shepherd's crook to hang it on, and hummingbird food, along with a couple jars of preserves. They seemed delighted and hung up their new feeder outside in the back right away.
A day later, and they were taking everyone a “thank you for having us” gift of baklava! Yummers! In addition to us they also gave a bottle of Yellowtail Sweet Red Roo wine along with a wine aerator! I had never seen one before– and actually went back to their door and knocked. When they answered, I cocked my head to the side and held the funny little bulbous glass thing up and said, “What IS it? I can tell it isn't an incense burner or bong of some kind– but for the life of me I don't know what else it could be!”
They laughed of course and explained.
I looked at my new wine toy in wonder after that and said, “Jeez… I thought I loved you guys before…!” More laughter!
Later tonight, on their first night here, Gerick and I invited them to join us to hang out at the fire pit and we sat around until 11 just bantering easily about various and sundry…
So– these guys bake and know wine on top of being into prepping and they are only 23 and 25 years old! I think I'm in love! =^D
