Just a quick post -- we arrived last night at 5pm as planned. All is well at the new place except the water pressure in the shower sucks! However, the half hour walk through our woods this morning made it all better. We have already been given a bag full of veggies and a new birdfeeder by new friends. This morning at 8:15 the previous owner (who is probably 80 and still driving a bright red pickup) came to give us the rest of the keys. He hugged me three times and then said, "Okay. I'm done here." What a funny (and very sweet) old guy.
I'm on campus checking email. Today at noon campus folks will show up to help unpack the truck. Later we will *hopefully* be able to sit and eat a real meal.
more soon!
