Thanks Where Thanks is Due

Not all the pictures of our travels are all in one place, so check back for more on our travels.

We couldn't have made the trip cross country without our 2nd trusty driver - our all grown up son - Austin.  Thank you for all your help packing, loading, driving,driving & driving, unloading and so much more.  Particularly the HOTTEST days ever with a faulty air conditioner in the truck.

"June weather records are in, and the nation's unprecedented warm spell continues, making this the warmest first half of the year and the warmest 12-month period since record-keeping began for the continental U.S. in 1895."

And most of all thank you for putting up with the rest of us!

But oh, the places we've been and the things we've seen - together.

(Riley we know you were eager to participate if we had planned better and you had been able to leave work there in Provo to assist us - next time.)

Oh, The Joys of Moving!

From this . . .

To this . . .



Need I say more. I really don't have time to be blogging. Time to get the kids up and moving for school and more packing!

We are still in Naples, FL. The owner's of the home we have been renting for 2-1/2 years have moved back to the area and moving back into their home. With each move we make we are making it a little closer to I-75. Next move should put us on that freeway of life back to the west coast of these United States, maybe!

Farewell Friend!

Judy Wheeler has been a dear friend for I don't know how many years. Her son, Ethan, graduated with Riley and she has been a huge 'friend of scouting'! She was there to help me move when I needed her and I was there to help her move when she needed me.

She is an amazing woman - dentist and lawyer, school teacher, scout leader and more. She is now working for an Indian tribe out in New Mexico and we wish her well in her new adventures. She was so excited for the outdoor activities to experience in her new neck-of-the-woods.

I told her if she wants more help organizing and dejunking she can just fly me on out to New Mexico! It couldn't be any worse than sorting through her storage unit in the Florida humidity and heat!
