...and we're still driving.
to recap, the summer started with two excellent trips
to see family in kansas and texas while alex finished up work products/
took care of movers/closing on our house in charlottesville. **pics to follow
the kids and i then flew back to richmond and spent
the fourth in williamsburg, followed by
a week-long trip with special, special friends
to the outer banks (rodanthe, to be exact)
to celebrate alex's completion of training. **again, pics to follow
the vacay could only be described as magical.
from there, we began our journey, aka the Big Move.
we stopped in charlottesville, louisville, kansas city,
and now denver. tomorrow we are off to jackson hole,
and by sunday we will officially be considered montanans.
within the past months, we have taken the kids through twelve states,
and managed to see the trotters in three of them.
we are tired,
the pets are tired,
and hutch asked to 'just walk to kentucky'
on our second day of driving.
however, the trip has not been too bad at all,
and it is just so nice to spend an afternoon in d-town before we begin again.
here are some pictures of western kansas,
a road we traveled often until two years ago.
i was obsessed with both the wind turbines
and the rags alex bought for us outside of salina.
the moment we pulled up into the driveway of our new home, this little family of deer was waiting in our yard (also known as dirt/a little grass)to greet us. at first i thought they had been planted a la funny farm, but no, they and dozens of others just roam our neighborhood all day. good stuff.
