I'm embarrassed to post this, but we failed our Intensive Spanish II course. Failed in that we didn't finish the course. We didn't keep up with our homework and we fell too far behind to keep up with the rest of the class.
BUT, we haven't given up! We still practice with each other (and Sitka) and we've been watching soap operas in Spanish (many people have advised us to do this.) Plus, we can continue with the textbook and CD so that we don't lose everthing we've learned so far. And if anyone has any other helpful ideas for us, please let us know! We really think it will be important for us - not so much for teaching English in Mexico - but for becoming a part of the community wherever we end up living.
On another note we have a guy coming up from Montesano tomorrow to check out the Harley Davidson FATBOY. Plus, we have a Harley dealership that is interested if the Montesano guy doesn't work out. We hate to do it, but we have to sell that bike. I'm sure it will be a sad day for Miguel when he sees someone drive off on his baby.
And we're holding our house open this Saturday and Sunday. There has been an increase in recent activity in the Duvall real estate market so hopefully we'll get a good offer soon. Send your friends and family to see our house this weekend!
¡Adios!

I've been reading your blog! I'm excited for you as we're also planning on a move to Mexico, but it won't be for a few years yet.
I hope your open house goes well for you, and hope that you have better luck with the Nissan than you've had!
Looking forward to the next installment, and keep up the good work on your Spanish lessons! (We need to start learning too!)

Gracias Beth...I just posted a comment on your blog.
You'll be happy to know that I was backing into the garage today (after Mike had already jumped out of the passenger door) and I CAREFULLY avoided hitting him.
