Friends, Romans, Countrymen – lend me your eyes….
Welp, we got off to a late start leaving. I THOUGHT we had gotten rid of so much, but yet we still managed to fill up the 16′ truck & Rodeo completely, with Chris’ dad taking the leftovers to be picked up at a later date.
The drive through Kansas and Oklahoma has been mildly uneventful. Just imagine what life is like, crusing down I-35 going no faster than 57mph. That’s right folks…With all the weight we are hauling, our little truck (we named it “Meat” – long story) couldn’t make it up to even 60. So…if you have never enjoyed the KS Turnpike at 55mph, you have simply NOT LIVED!
We left the metro around 6:30pm and it is now, according to the official Holiday Inn time, 2:32am. So…8 hours to OKC! In all honesty, it flew by so fast and we are going to sleep in until about 9am tomorrow. Oh, also after getting everything loaded, I decided there was no WAY we are unloading all our stuff ourselves tomorrow. So, thanks to Robert at 2 Men & a Truck, all our belongings will be professionally carried in by a moving team and we will sit in lawn chairs with umbrella drinks and watch them sweat. As for Chris, he’s asleep – our cats are sniffing around the room and I’m about to go beat up our extremely loud neighbors (all in love and kindness of course.)
Thank you for your prayers…
Much love,
Chris & Anne

glad you got to your mid-way point safely! meat is a good name for a truck! when we moved here from t-town it took FOREVER! we had a huge truck and hauling a car.
the longest it’s ever taken us to get from tulsa to denver was almost 18 hours! it usually only take 9-10, but we had ice and snow and cruised I-70 at a whopping 35! that was one of the worst road-trips EVER!
have a fun rest of your drive! enjoy the warm and do something texan when you get there! like salute the flag or something…ha ha!
Yay! You’re on the move. Can’t wait to see what Texas is like from your point of view..
It was good to see you the other night. Lets not take that long in between visits…yeah?
