On the road...

I thought I'd let you all know that I have indeed left Walker. Yesterday the movers came (and were very nice and professional so I didn't fire them) and loaded everything into the moving van... a pink semi with a pink trailer! It looked like Pepto Bismal was pour all over it!! They were there about 3 hours and everything was gone. After another 2 hours of cleaning and packing the car, I was on the road! I stopped by a few friends for dinner so I didn't actually get on the road until after 7pm. I made it as far as Lakeville (south suburb of the Cities) and spent the night. After a little breakfast, I should be on the road. I hope to make it to Tulsa today. It's about 10 hours, but I figure if I'm no the road, even by 9am, that still gives about 13 hours to drive a 10 hour trip. We'll see... around 9pm we'll start reevaluating and see how far I get. I'm SOOOO glad I got a GPS - it can tell me where there are nearby hotels! :)

I'll post more if I can, but probably not until I get to Houston. Thank you for all the prayers and encouragement!!
