2400 Miles Away

Well it took us 4.5 days to travel 2400 miles, through 11 different states. It was a long grueling ride and we were so glad when we had finally reached our destination (our new home). I have a lot of pictures/video of our trip and I will be posting that eventually. We have arrived in Virginia! We had to live two weeks without internet and our stuff so that was kind of rough. We had two camping chairs, an air mattress, and a lot of peanut butter and jelly to get by. Our stuff is now here and we are still settling in. I will post pictures of our house when it is all put together. Our lawn is a work in progress, but this place is quickly growing on me. It is very rural, we live in a golf/yacht club community so there are a lot of retired people here, but my old soul does not mind that a bit. We have a nice club house with a restaurant, indoor/outdoor pool, and other amenities which is nice. It took us some time to adjust to how quiet it is around here, certainly no ambient noise. We see deer on a daily basis right in our front yard and we are less than a mile from the Atlantic Ocean! We have done a little bit of exploring, but our goal right now is to get settled in first. This weekend coming up is very exciting! We are driving five hours north to pick up our new puppy!!!! YAY! he is an 8-week-old German Shorthair/Brittany Spaniel Mix. I will be posting pictures of that as soon as he arrives!

I think that is it for updates as of now. I will be posting some videos soon!

And so begins chapter 2....Our first night in our new home!
