We made it...

On Saturday morning, we left Minnesota at 6:45 in a 16-foot Penske truck filled with all of our earthly possessions. I drove from Fridley, Minnesota to Rockford, Illinois, where Autumn took over until Danville, Illinois. In Danville, I took the wheel again and delivered us to Xenia at 8:37pm, or just under 13 hours of driving.

We were a little concerned with the weather because southern Minnesota and southwestern Wisconsin both got socked with up to a foot of snow on Friday and major travel advisories were issued. We drove past a lot of snow, but it was never an issue.

We are very excited and a tad nervous about the future, but we know that God is in control and will take care of us. We left behind a lot of wonderful friends yet carried away a myriad of memories. To those left behind - we will miss you sorely.

So glad you guys made it safely. You were in my thoughts! Can't remember if you told me or not, but where did you find to live?

You both are missed back here in MN. AS my daughter puts it "Is 'my Autumn' back yet"
