    Happy dance!

    Our agent just called -- the buyers have accepted our counter with no changes (I knew we were too nice!), so we have a contract! Woo-hoo!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Thanks for your support, all. Of course, it's not over until closing, but I'm feeling really good right about now.

    Congratulations Emily! Don't second guess yourselves - for all you know, they would have walked had you asked more. You have a buyer, you will hopefully have a closing, and you will be able to come back to the US and not worry about owning/renting a condo down there. That's pretty awesome if you ask me. Can't wait to see where you land

    We'll spend the first couple of months traveling around visiting family, going to doctor's appointments, and getting all our ducks in a row, then we're heading to Kansas. We have friends who are going cruising on their sailboat in late May and offered us a great deal on renting their furnished home if we do some minor house-sitting duties. We can still travel some, and since we'll be right in the middle of the country, it will be easier to travel to some of the places we want to go in the west. We'll be in Prairie Village (Kansas City suburbs, I guess you'd say). It will be interesting cycling in a different part of the country -- hoping to get to the Katy Trail and other bike paths relatively close by.

    Thanks everyone for all the support. Crossing fingers it all comes to pass -- a contract doesn't always equal a closing, but we're going back to the US no matter what.
