The Walkers Move to Cali






Our lovely (and wacky) Walkers have become a bi-coastal couple. Their love story started on the banks of Lake Tahoe and then traveled to the smoky mountains of Boone, NC. And now, dear readers, Joey and Claire have returned to their beloved west coast.

The Walkers reside in the booming metropolis of Colusa, CA.

They have single-handedly doubled the under-30 population in the town.

Joe has finished his student teaching/coaching and is now taking on the task of youth pastor and YoungLife leader. Yep, he's a busy guy.

And our little Cla is rocking yet another school as the best Chemistry/Biology/Physics teacher of all time. She is also qualified to teach in 3 states now. Booyah.

Living in Colusa does have its benefits. Only an hour away from Tahoe, San Fran and Chico-- the Walkers are able to partake in all of California's finest outdoor activities when they can. They are also living in abundance with pomegranate farms, almond trees and other yummy fruit (just ripe for the stealing...)

They have really figured out how to make life work for them in Cali. A few of the chicks have already ventured out west for a visit. With homemade pie, stellar views, the smallest mountain range in the world, great hiking, and lots of laughing--there's much to love about the Walker home.

So I'm pretty sure there's nothing Joe and Claire can't do. They make a great team.

Next on our fearless travelers' list?

Home ownership.

Here's hoping escrow is more than just an strange sounding word....
