We have set forth on our backward Oregon Trail.
The day started early and by 9 we were at the Penske dealer ....
But there was no truck.
It wouldn't arrive at 10!
But ... It finally arrived as a 22'.
And...the one hour delay saved us another $250 for our inconvenience.
I don't know about you, but that's a good hourly wage.
We began loading at about 11:30 and were wrapping up at 3:30.
A friend arrived just in time to help move the hide-a-bed (and be put to work cleaning my fridge and kitchen floor)..
We then jetted to town for a very late lunch,
Returned home to finish cleaning,
And hit the road at about 5:45.
We got a few miles down the road.
Tomorrow will be our longest day mileage-wise with a stop in Boise to see family for lunch.
Hubby said this is the first time in our marriage that he feels like we will be settled.
Our time in NY was dictated by the Navy.
WA was as well.
We expected to be only 4 years in NC for school.
And though we didn't know the length, we knew OR was a temporary mission.
Now ... It feels like we may be able to put down some roots ...
Of course, if it is in God's will...
The view for 4 full days and 2 half days
