House Hunting Day 3

Greetings,

Wake up... in Charlotte, NC.

Danelle makes us breakfast. (Harry do not get used to all this pre mo service... like cooking)

Eat. 

Showers.  Pack up. 

And then something marvelous happens... we meet Ms. Norris.  Ms. Noris is Danelle's neighbor.. and a blog reader... who came over to visit with us. 

And Ms Norris has 2 sisters who live in the Norfolk and Virginia Beach... and she was just there a few days ago.  So Ms. Norris came over and brought with her Norfolk knowledge that Harry and I did not have. 

And a map.  Which we needed when the traffic came to a screeching halt and we were directed off the normal path and were rerouted through country roads.

THANK YOU MS. NORRIS.... and it was so nice to meet you.  Your map might have saved our marriage.... or possibly Harry's life.

Back to the chronological version of the story:

Packed up.  Time for goodbyes...

Logan is not so happy....

Sorry the camera is all blurry.... I left it in the freezing cold car and the lens was all fogged over.  It's funny how I can take pictures of cotton, but when I really need to remember to bring in the camera and take pictures of loving family members... I forget to.  Maybe because I was bored in Alabama... and that's not the case when you are around family!

Here's Logan in fireman pj's

The camera lens is finally adjusting to the new warmth.... as we say good-bye to Riley, Logan, and Danelle's striped legs.

On the road again... to Interstate 85.  All the way through North Carolina and into Virginia (thanks Ms. Norris for the directions).

Finally, hours later... we arrive in Virginia. 

Then start the eastward drive to Norfolk. 

Hit traffic.  Rerouted.  Add additional hours to drive time. Finally make it to Norfolk... at night.

But there is a night lit skyline.  Oh, a real city again.  We are going to live in a real city again. 

We make our way to the Little Creek base.  Check in.  Go out for food.  Wait for my parents to make it in... they were a few hours behind us on Interstate 95.

Reunite with parents... get settled in for the night.  Harry tries to give Kadence to my parents.... but she wants to stay with us.

Nightie Nite....

Actual house hunting tomorrow!

Blessings,
