The move....
We loaded up the Penske for the one way trip to Texas. This was the 3rd truckload, which is pretty crazy due to the fact that we sold almost all of our furniture with our house. However, we also had furniture from our St. George condo (about half was sold with the condo), and an accumulation of 30 years. The majority of items in the last move was Kent's garage items, outdoor furniture, kitchen items, and personal belongings. We got a late start, underestimating how long it would take to load. We are so grateful for the Brown family and kind neighbors and their great help getting us loaded and sent off with love and good wishes.
After braving a blizzard over Soldier's Summit in the dark, we spent the night in Moab. Kent drove the Penske, Kaylee drove Kent's truck with the large covered trailer, and I drove my Jeep, bringing up the rear. Kent did an amazing job keeping us on the road despite very limited visibility leading the way through the dark and the snow. Kaylee became very skilled at driving a truck and trailer. I had an easy job keeping up with everyone and operating the flashers to warn others of our slow climb up the mountain.
We were happy to see the "Welcome to Texas sign" on the second day!
The next morning we began to unload our belongings into the empty barn.
We are so grateful for safe journeys to our new home. The adventures begin!
