Wagons Ho!!!!

It's here.  We've talked about it for years and now the anticipated moment has arrived.  The great  expedition to Utah is about to begin.  Scheduled for the 24th of October but the dated has moved up to the 20th.  Due to the company Alan worked for deciding to lay him off.  After 30 years of working in Arizona  this is the first time he has gotten laid off.  So, to get a quicker start on the job searching we have decided to get going sooner up to the cold country.  We will be leaving next tuesday, the 20th up to West Jordan.

Probably the hardest thing about this move is leaving four out of my five children behind and my two grandsons.  I have gotten quite attached to these two little boys.  I babysit Maverick three or four times a week so this will be extremely difficult.  Things must be this way though, at least for a while.  

Dale said don't even bother bringing my capri pants or summer clothes.  I don't know if I have that many (what you guys would consider) winter clothes.  I don't think Becca OWNS a coat.  

So when you see a few desert rats pull up into town, please don't step on us.  We're just trying to escape the heat.
