To my Armchair Travelers

It is with regret and sadness that I must discontinue my Not All Who Launder Are Washed posts,  and indeed shut down the website.  It has become too costly to maintain, and I am not monetized.

Although I have enjoyed the work these past 4 years, this is largely a travel blog, and I’m not going anywhere these days.  My “Ark” is nearly completed, so further reporting would feel somewhat narcissistic.   There will be a final post published at the end of the year, a review of sorts, so please enjoy that.

Effective February 1, 2023 the posts found here will be no more.  A website exists on a paid server, a storefront, if you will.  When I stop paying the rent, I have to move out.  It’s possible the domain name may be purchased by another, but it won’t be my content.  If you have any favorites, now is the time to revisit them, for even I will not have access to my work.

I wish to thank all of my readers and supporters, the new friends I have made- the brothers and sisters in Christ I have found.  You have blessed me deeply.

Moving forward, if anyone wishes to maintain contact in the form of updates or an occasional brief newsletter, please send me an email at mhanna1959@gmail.com indicating such.  Although I have the email addresses of all my subscribers, I will not initiate personal contact without your permission.

I pray that the Lord will bless you and keep you in safety and comfort in these trying days.  May He shine His face upon you, and give you His shalom.  It is imperative that we all seek a relationship with the Creator of the universe, our heavenly Father, through His beloved son Jesus Christ.  I am here for anyone who needs prayer or further information.  Love and hugs.

    All my love! You were one of my favorites in Real Estate and I know you are enjoying being out of it as much as I am. I have moved back to my home town, Tallahassee, after being away for 50 years. I’m so happy being back as I still have some precious family, mostly cousins, still here and there is just nothing like family to me.

    I haven’t missed Lakeland or real estate for even a minute. I can’t explain that as I’m very thankful for it, but I am happy to be moving forward and loving every minute of life. What a gift we have and I love what God is doing.

    You will always have a very special place in my heart. Thanks for sharing your adventures and mostly your friendship.

    Love, Fran Williams

      Fran, such a lovely sentiment. I am in tears. You are right about not missing Lakeland or real estate. In fact, when I look back, I wonder how I managed. Life is peaceful here, and so am I. Glad you’ve found yours. Looking forward to keeping in touch. Thanks for your support and love! MH

    “Well done thy faithful servant” comes to mind. I have so enjoyed your blogs and more so our fellowship, albeit we are far from each other. Keep in touch and maybe even come visit. I have room. 😘

      Thanks, Andrea. I believe my traveling days are over for now. But one never knows what is in store when we seek His will. Thanks for always being there. Love and hugs!
