We considered moving to Ecuador, wanting a big adventure, but changed our minds because of the distance from family and friends and the difficulty and discomfort of flying. Instead we've purchased a Sprinter Westfalia and plan on exploring our world -- U.S., Canada, Alaska, and as far south as we decide to roam (who knows perhaps as far as Ecuador).

| Our new 18' 2005 van, with 35,000 miles and lots of pep and vigor for carrying Ed, Benton our pup, and me all over the place. Plus, downsizing has been our lifetime challenge and this van will definitely test our resolve. |
In the meantime, we have no need for our beautifully designed, artistic, unique and much-loved home. For a small home we live very big. A 100 plus guest wedding in April proved its expansion capabilities. Separate buildings offer an abundance of privacy plus the relationship to the outdoors, in all four seasons, expands it both physically and visually in unexpected and charming ways. With amazing attention to detail, the home was built largely of recycled materials by our son, Brad Hankins (dbBrad), designer and builder 360.920.8280.

Our home is a short walk to Langley's commercial district, allowing one the opportunity to experience the pleasure of a small friendly town offering theater, restaurants, art galleries, public market, book stores and library, charming shops and an outstanding grocery. We have a whale museum, marina, and views of Saratoga Passage to knock your socks off.
