Had a few glasses of wine last night and came to two sort or decisions; we will look at a couple of houses in Hopewell which, although smaller than we would like, would keep us here and would be perfectly adequate for our needs.  I took a walk around the street - N Elm Street - yesterday evening and it is a nice area.  Secondly, returning to the ranch at some point remains a real possibility.  Much will depend on schooling etc but we could see a role for us in developing a real sustainable, organic business.  Would be exciting.
