On The Way...

We're four hours from our new home...sure we could have made it in a crazy three days but honestly, I finally just had to call a pit stop. We've been boondocking it since we left... At this point...day three of our forty hour trek across the country (again!)...we are in need of a few things...showers top the list right now! So we are in Vegas staying at the rv park we were going to visit on our previous trip out here but never made it. Funny that they assigned us a site and it was on "California Rd". After showers for everyone we went out for real food...well...not road food anyways and then back to relax before bed. Being so close to California means we can finally get a good nights sleep and leave a little later in the day.
It's been a fairly quiet ride out here. Unlike any of our other long hauls, we've had no rain, no winds, just really nice weather to drive in. I slept though a lot of the mountain driving so my nerves are still intact too! And for once Maddy's ears are not bothering her...yeah! We had some incredible scenery going through Colorado and Utah...enough to keep the drive interesting for everyone. And the weather right now...at 11pm...is HOT! Long day so I'm off to tuck in my kiddos while Bill either wins or loses my fortune at the casino!

Yikes. We're planning to move cross-country next year. I'm not sure how we will be working that with 2 young kids, 2 cats and a turtle...
