| Five adults, three kids, two cars, and a moving truck...on the side of the road...in the middle of NOWHERE! |
We woke up early sunday morning to continue our journey north. After gassing up, and grabbing a few snacks we were on the road again...another six hour day of driving! John and Joy led the way in the U-haul, mom, the kids and I drove in the mini-van, and Josh was the cabuse in the civic (listening to law school prep cd's...boring.) After driving about two hours, we got a phone call from Josh...the civic was acting up...revving like crazy to make it up the hills, something was wrong. So, in the middle of NOWHERE...we pulled over and made some calls, the closest town was like a fifteen min drive away...it was Sunday, nothing was open, do they even have tow trucks and repair shops in the middle of nowhere? It was like a flashback to when the Porsche broke down in Twin Falls when Josh and I came up to house hunt....can we ever drive to Moscow without a car breaking down! Discourraged... yes, hopeful... yes, silent prayers answered...yes! The tow driver wouldn't be able to come for quite a while, so we decided to drive to the nearest town and abandon the civic. On our way there, in the middle of NOWHERE...what did we see? a Uhaul rental company in a field next to someones house...they had a car dolly to pull the Civic behind the Uhaul...just what we needed! A BLESSING...PRAYERS ANSWERED! After a quick lunch at this tiny, greasy, diner, we continued for four more hours to Moscow. As we continued driving I felt so much love and gratitude towards my Heavenly Father for his love and help to continue our journey...similarly I felt great love and gratitude towards our parents for their continued help and support.

We received your 'We've Moo-ved!' card today. So cute! Is that one of your moving boxes you cut up? Adorable. Soooo glad you're going to be journaling your law school adventures. Looks like your adventure has already started on the trip north. I always say all's well that ends well. My life is full of the Lord's tender mercies as well. Say hi to G and L for me. We sure do miss them in Primary. Mimi
