The Trek To Nashville Part Two..
With everything packed we left Boston Friday night for a last night in CT. After a wonderful morning, we headed out for the big journey. I led the way with the U Haul and Christie followed behind me with the kids. She was like the cars that you see on the highways which has WIDE LOAD written on it that follows those already built houses that they move on a flatbed. Anytime I needed to change lanes, I would signal, and she would block off the traffic. About an hour into the trip, Christie calls me frantic. STOP THE TRUCK!!! THE TRAILER IS OPEN!!! STOP!!! There was nowhere to pull over, so I pulled over where I was, which was the worst place for you to pull over: right before and exit, right around a corner, where there was no shoulder! After securing the trailer we were off again. Our kids shocked and amazed us with what great travelers they were. The first day we were on the road for over 12 hours, and the kids were amazing!! We were trying to pace ourselves, but Caeley just wanted to get there. "Come on, let's go!" she would say, "Let's go to Nashville!" We got as far as the southern tip of Virginia our first night. The following video shows what troopers our kids are, how they had their own exercise regimen, and the excited reaction as they first arrive at their new house!! At the very end you will see the daughter of our landlord who came with her dad to drop off the keys. She shows Cales her new room which used to be the girl's old room. They have hit it off quite well!!
