After 4,011 miles driven from Long Beach to NY, I was more than thrilled to finally see the Fort Drum exit sign!! Those 4,011 miles are ones FG and I drove and are only point A to point B and doesn’t include any driving around we did while visiting a town. What a way to spend her summer vacation.
We’ve been here a week now and are going through all the things involved in settling into a new post. I’ve got to get FG signed up for some “summer camp” activities so she can start meeting and playing with kids her age.
We’re keeping our fingers crossed that we’ll be in our new home soon ~ the hold up is with the delivery of our household goods. Seems the moving companies are so busy, they can’t schedule our delivery for a month, even though both household and unaccompanied baggage are both here already 😦
Temporary lodging is OK but we’re all anxious to move into our own place. Thankfully, we were able to get into the guest quarters which allows pets. There are only 13 of those rooms so we really lucked out. If you have a pet and you’re moving to Drum, book your temporary lodging EARLY!
The weather has been glorious all week ~ sunny and low to mid-80s. I’m so glad we moved here when things are so green, sunny and pretty. Now that I’ve seen summer in NY, I’ll remember how things CAN be when it’s the middle of winter and we’re snowbound.
[…] Dave, was kind enough to take care of Maya and Sport while we traveled across the Pacific and across the United States. The trip took us over a month and could not have been done with two dogs in tow. I’m forever […]

Wow! What a journey you and FG have had! That is alot of miles and scenery!! Happy to hear that you have arrived safe and sound! Now we have to figure out how far away you are and work out a meeting in the future, My guess is you and FG are not interested in going any further than the local store for a while! HA!
