Gene finally sold Rancho Regretto today and will be moving...well...who knows where but probably Phoenix (god - perhaps even Scottsdale - ugh).
Good luck to him and Alex - hope they find a dream house but definitely bummed that my room, MY ROOM won't be my room anymore. And all that stuff that I scratched into the foundation og the house as we built it, before I helped lay the tile will someday be found by somebody who isn;t related to me.....
I only lived for three years at old RR but lots of important stuff happened between sophomore and senior year of high school. I'll miss the wild animals, the remoteness, the amazing view, the far too large pool and hot tub, the desert...oh the desert.
Was hoping a lot of loud music, drums and guitar playing and booze might help but not so much.....
Maybe time for more loud music, drums, guitar and booze....definitely more booze.

A toast to Rancho Regretto where I marveled at the Priest and AC/DC poster plastered rooms, slept in a trundle bed, ate part of one half of two red velvet cake halves, found a lost contact lens, and enjoyed the truly amazing views with great company.
Hi All to all of you!
I was checking your blog and discovered that Gene and Alex are no longer at Rancho Regretto. Although we haven't seen them in ages, we're sorry to think that they've moved off from that gorgeous piece of Desert, and that means that no Evansi are now in town. :(
In fact we passed TV Loop this AM,on our way to check out some birds in the TV Wash, and were talking about how Sheila fought the builders for every cactus and bush that wasn't part of the foundation, to stay where it was.
I'll keep checking to see how you are.
We're doing very well. Had a 30 day "Pacific Odyssey" last March starting in NZ and ending in Japan. What a trip! We loved being out on the water on a small ship. often with no land or other boats in sight...AND not even a jet track in the sky. Pure bliss!
We love you!
Mary Jean and Clive
