[Today’s run: 3.1 miles in Dubuque, IA]<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We had a busy week. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Last Saturday we connected with the son, the daughter and the son-in-law for a nice dinner, bringing the D and SiL back to our house.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sunday we filled the van with boxes and garage stuff. We also acquired the moving van.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Monday we filled the moving van. We were expecting to leave on Tuesday but there was not yet anywhere to go.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Tuesday we did some cleaning and final packing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Wednesday we drove 14 hours to a hotel in the new city. (The dog actually did pretty well in hotel dwelling.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Thursday we did a walk-through then took possession of the new house. Then we unloaded the moving van.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Friday we had another errand with the moving van. And then returned it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It just so happens that Thursday and Friday have been a heat wave in this part of Iowa. The new house does not have central AC. We were able to acquire a portable AC unit to make a cool room for the dog and for resting. And we obtained 4 new fans that helped us get some sleep.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Today the weather seems to be cooling down a bit. D and SiL started their journey back home. So it is just our little family unit in a large house with lots of boxes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I was able to get my computer set up on a couple of planks held up by moving boxes, exactly one week since I boxed it up. I’m using my cell phone tethering and unlimited data plan as my internet service. DSL will come online late next week we hope.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
