Timeline to Move to Puerto Rico

You may have noticed that we added a countdown to the sidebar of our site. We are anticipating -if all things go according to plan- that we will be ready to move to Rincon, Puerto Rico by October 2013. In the mean time, we have quite a few things we need to take care of, many of which we are doing right now! So here is our anticipated timeline from now (or April) until October 2013. The winter months will be tough, but I’m sure we’ll be able to find quite a bit that needs to be done even then.


We’re ready to get back to work at our place in Rincon, Puerto Rico (BK with a shovel in the driveway)

The future becomes less and less clear the further out we go, but we have some idea, so here goes:

April 2012– Hire a management company for our rental business. Put one rental property up for sale.
May 2012– New tenant moves into one property. Close on property that was for sale. Tenants in Evans property move out. Move it into management.
June 2012– New tenant for Evans property. Climb first 14er.
July 2012– ? My birthday…Clean out house of any extra stuff/garage sales. New carpet for our house?
August 2012– Trip to Meeker to visit Dad’s grave.
September 2012– ? Party?
October, November, December, January, February, March– Visit Puerto Rico during a winter month, get a little more comfortable there. Take care of back-burner doctor appointments and things like that. Buy a laptop.
April 2013– Possibly move another tenant/property into management.
May 2013– Buy two one-way tickets to paradise!
June 2013– Start selling off our furniture and other household items. Divide into stuff we’ll take, stuff to throw, stuff to sell, and stuff to give away.
July 2013– List and sell 2 out of 3 cars
August 2013– Begin shipping stuff to PR and packing up the other stuff we need. Get Kitty ready for the trip. Relocate the chickens. Schnoodle?
September 2013– Move out of our house. List our house for rent and either move in with family/friends or rent at a short term rental for a month. Give notice at work.
October 2013– Arrive in Rincon sometime mid-October or so.
And on…Let the adventure begin!!


And also to hang out at the beach
