Are we there yet?

Didn't blog last night because we pulled over at Exit 170 on the Ohio Turnpike around 1230 in the morning to finally get some rest at the Travel Plaza after about 12 hours on the road (only about 8 of which were actually spent making progress driving). Seven hours of driving today, and we're finally "there". We set up camp at Solomons Island Navy Recreation Center, across the river from the base. Dinner at Chick Fil-A around 9:30 tonight. We considered crashing the Gough's, but thought better of it. We'd like to keep them as friends!

We'll spend the next several days looking for a house and cleaning out cars and trailer after a LONG time on the road. We're looking forward to having LOTS of neighbors over the upcoming holiday weekend, as well.

Praise God for safety on the road and we continue to pray that we'll soon find the house He's prepared for us. Thanks for joining with us.

We are so glad you are all there safely. We miss you already. Good luck with the cleanup. I hope they have a dumpster closeby. Hope you find a place to live soon. Give the Gough's a hug for me.

Love, Nana

Glad that you made it there safely! I've been praying for you, especially after hearing of your trailer mishap, ugh!

Adding you to my RSS feed so that I can keep better track of you.

We miss you!!!!

I heard from mutual friends from Milton (now that was a light year ago!) that you were headed that way right as they were leaving. You are so close to us and we would like to see you when you are settled.
