Hello out there!! We're still alive and well, though with almost six months of silence I wouldn't doubt if you began to wonder. A lot has happened in a short amount of time, but I'll do my best to bring us up to the present.
After New Mexico we did make it to Amarillo, Texas for the night and then the next day found ourselves at my grandparent and dad's house in Wilburton, Oklahoma. We had a fun time catching up with them and exploring Robber's Cave for the short time we were there.
We drove nonstop for Indiana after that, filled up with excitement to see our family and friends. It was fun to catch up and relax for the week as we anticipated our big move to Chicago at the beginning of November. Actually Chicago ended pretty quickly as work is very hard to find, not surprisingly, so by the first of December we found ourselves back in Indiana a little heartbroken/disappointed... we are still reassuring ourselves that it was a good decision.
When we first came home we both signed on with a temp agency to work in a factory that makes Subaru parts. I was making the plastic wall parts that go around the lights in the trunk and Sean was making something that goes into defrosting the windshield. The job was so glamorous that by the end of January we were both doing something else! Now Sean is working at DePauw in media services and I am at Goodwill, we both love our jobs.
Last month we moved into the RV Park north of Greencastle, our van looks so tiny next to all of the campers, but its a fun place to live while we're here and we're both happy with the idea that when we want to leave it will be that much easier without a lease =)
I think we are both ready to get back on the road again, unfortunately traveling isn't the cheapest endeavor in the world and weddings aren't either, we're finding out. So, we're hoping for next April. In the meantime we're loving life, spending as much time with family and friends as we can and getting out and exploring what's around us. Staying busy and always dreaming of what's next.
Enjoy the few pictures we've gathered over the last few months.
Peace, love and so many well wishes to you.
