Mid 2013: We
entered the Program, sold our house, grabbed our chickens, dug
up our plants fled to the safest and most inconspicuous area to
easily blend in- Tarzana, the San Fernando Valley, into the cabaña hovel
at The Compound also known as Gma's/ Mom's / Geri's /or the Mother in
law's house.
Mid 2016 Felt the heat of the Valley, time for a change, packed up and sold The Compound, dropped Gma off in Santa Rosa, grabbed the dog, gave away the chickens (and most everything else!), re-dug up the plants, headed north to rainy Eugene, Oregon.
Mid
2017 All the plants planted and thriving, and nothing to do so when the dog passed, we buried
her with the plants, and began an international disappearance/fugue
to Europe
Late
2019 Stumbled back to the US, laid low with the Gma again, this time in
another inconspicuous place- senior living in Santa Rosa. https://thechosenfugue.blogspot.com/2019/10/living-lodge.html
We celebrated her 90th, and then sadly Gma
passed in early 2020.
Summer 2020 Back in Eugene but feeling the heat and the need to keep moving.
We hurried cross country dodging Covid through some recklessly governed states to Amherst, MA, finding refuge in our underground hovel for 10 months and joy with our grand-daughter, her parents, her cats (Pip and Posy) and dog (Finn) https://thechosenfugue.blogspot.com/2020/08/our-year-of-living-dangerously-continues.html

Mid 2021 Needing to re-group, headed back west, stopped in the Twin
Cities to find joy with our new grand-dog, Monty ( and his parent), and do
some house-work on their new home.
Summer 2021: Six weeks in Minneapolis, then a U-turn back to Amherst so Monty (and parent) could spend time with Finn and we all could help grand-daughter (niece) and her parents (sister/brother-in law) move into THEIR new house. Finn was not too excited to spend time with Monty, but someone else was.
After the move in, a quick cross-country back to Eugene as we raced through the same Covid hot spots, unfortunately.
So, back on repeat- quickly sold the house, made 14 trips to Goodwill/Restore/St. Vincent's, bought and converted a van (good for living and surveillance, if necessary), rented an address (aka tiny apartment in Olympia, WA) and hit the road, fugue on wheels.
