And We're Off!


Well, quite a bit has happened since last we posted! The Westie Convention was a great success, and since then, we've enjoyed some time at the beach, in Conway, in Greenville, and in Utah. Neither of us had been to Salt Lake City, so that was probably our biggest adventure. The pictures are from Utah - specifically, Arches National Park - where we hiked for one glorious day (complete with a beautiful rainbow)! NOTE: Pictures will be added when we get to a non-dial-up computer!

With such a great summer behind us, we now embark on the next destination in our journey to colder and colder climates: Minnesota. That's right, we're moving to the amazing cosmopolitan state of....Minnesota. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure it will be great fun, but it's not quite a Chicago or New York or Hawaii. But there we go! We'll be there for one semester so Brandon can fit in more specialized rhetoric classes, and so that Rachel can....um....get a job? study languages? play with dog? turn into a popsicle? At any rate, we're excited to add another city notch to our belts, and to make Pocky the most well-traveled dog of all time.

If any of you have lived in or visited Minneapolis, give us some suggestions of sights to see, food to eat, and clothes to wear :)

So from now until the first of September, we'll be packing and making arrangements to leave Evanston. So until then, take care!

Sorry we missed you on your last visit to G-ville. Sure do miss you! Your bro knows the skinny, tho. I was in the middle of a move when you called, so I probably did not get your voicemail until a week later. YIKES! And as Jonathan so eloquently put it, "moving sucks", and I am still not completely recovered! Hope to talk to you soon! We've got LOTSA catching up to do! Give Pocky a hug for me!!
