David is a retired software engineer and photographer. Pam is a musician who composes modern classical music for choruses, orchestras and chamber music ensembles. She has played horn in several Massachusetts orchestras for many years. Check out her music at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.spindrift.com\">Spindrift Music Company<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/spindrift.bandcamp.com\">Bandcamp<\/a>. She takes photos too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2022, we started getting ready to move to Portugal, a big adventure! We made two scouting trips, after attending a couple photography workshops. Read about our scouting trips and other travels with the links on the Travel menu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2023, we&#8217;re updating the blog to talk about our moving experiences. Check out the new Portugal menu (when it&#8217;s ready) to see our settling-in diary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.transitorythoughts.com\/travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/20220902-122347_R5_3618-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1161\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.transitorythoughts.com\/travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/20220902-122347_R5_3618-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.transitorythoughts.com\/travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/20220902-122347_R5_3618-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.transitorythoughts.com\/travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/20220902-122347_R5_3618-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.transitorythoughts.com\/travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/20220902-122347_R5_3618-1536x1025.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.transitorythoughts.com\/travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/20220902-122347_R5_3618.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Mercado de Alvalade Norte, Lisboa, PT<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Elsewhere on the Web<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are some links to our other websites:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/honeycreeper.zenfolio.com\">Honeycreeper Images at Zenfolio<\/a> &#8211; photos of our travels<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.spindrift.com\">Spindrift Music Company<\/a> &#8211; about Pam&#8217;s music and composing activities <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.spindrift.com\/store\/\">Spindrift Music Store<\/a> &#8211; for PDF downloads of Pam&#8217;s music<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/spindrift.bandcamp.com\">Spindrift on Bandcamp<\/a> &#8211; albums of nature-inspired recordings, electroacoustic compositions<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.transitorythoughts.com\/travel\/recipes\/\">Recipes<\/a> &#8211; an archive of recipes that we have made and want to remember<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.transitorythoughts.com\/travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/20220831-141042_R5_3594-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1149\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.transitorythoughts.com\/travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/20220831-141042_R5_3594-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.transitorythoughts.com\/travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/20220831-141042_R5_3594-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.transitorythoughts.com\/travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/20220831-141042_R5_3594-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/www.transitorythoughts.com\/travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/20220831-141042_R5_3594.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We&#8217;re from Massachusetts in the northeastern United States.
