WE ARE FINALLY HERE!!! We made it!!!

I am much disbelief about how fairly easy it was to make the trek here. It took us five long days of traveling, but we made it to Walla Walla on Thursday, March 18th (Oswald and Hennessey's 7th birthday) and couldn't be happier to be on "solid ground". I am pretty certain Linus is glad to not be trapped in his car seat everyday and the pets are glad to at least be staying in one spot for a while. Oswald is much appreciative of being able to take walks again and have the comfort of a couch to snooze on.

It is weird being here...being so far away. Not too much different, really most places end up being near the same as where you came from, but those little differences catch us each time. It is a small town, so we are getting used to being in a place that isn't all hustle & bustle at all hours. The veterinary clinic has no weekend hours and neither does the daycare down the street, something I haven't seen in a long time. Overall, we feel pretty happy here so far and can really see ourselves settling in quite well. No matter where we went, it was going to be tough to be away from friends and family.

The biggest problem facing us currently is finding a home to rent that will allow our pets. Most places, we are finding, are quite anti-pet...Dangit!!! Why do so many bad pet-owners have to ruin it for the rest of us who truly take care of and clean-up after their pets. Oh well. We are going to look at a place on Monday evening...right now it is the only possible place. Wish us luck, oh peeps of the internet, that things work out in the near, near future.
