Changing over




RC gave me a day off today, so I put it to good use. Lisa showed me where the "inspection" place was and where the motor vehicle people are. It's all in a small area downtown, so it wasn't too bad. The truck was due for NY inspection this month, anyway. Now I can just skip it. I guess I'm really a Kentucky resident now. I got a bank account opened up, too.

Kentucky Arizona pictures

Arizona is getting friendlier by the day. I can just walk up and start scratching her now.

This shot is for Heather. Do you think there is going to be a dark spot on her forehead when she gets her regular hair in?

starting the move


I know this picture has nothing to do with our move, but I was a real slacker in the photo department and didn't get any shots of the first load I brought last weekend. (It was the car, 4-wheeler and a few totes.) I'll try and do better with the pictures next time. This was taken over Memorial Day weekend when Boo and Marianne were here. And no, I didn't get any of them, either. I started my new job yesterday, and it seems to be going OK. I will need to learn the towns around here as quickly as possible, though.

new stuff

There is some news for everyone. I found a job in Kentucky, so that's where we're headed. It will probably take a couple months until we move the bulk of the household down. I hope it all works out for the best.

Other stuff going on



I helped Lisa and Jim with the new fence, mostly just digging a few post holes.











As I'm sure you all know by now, Sundown had her little one, who has been named Arizona. See Jim's blog for lots more pictures.

I started working on the blue parts to the car. I still have another coat or two to put on.

They are a fairly good match now, much better than the bright blue color they were.

Finally all done



The wood is finally finished. We filled the inside rack today. I changed the oil in the car today, too.












The yard is mowed and the garden is ready to plant. We'll still have to wait for another week to actually do the planting. It's still a bit too early.












Looking into the back yard, and it looks nice. It's the first mowing of the season for the whole yard. The front yard always starts growing first.

The wood pile is getting closer



This is what I have left for supply. The racks are 16 feet long, so there is a fair amount still left.












The side is done, and so is the back wall.













Allen and I got the first of the three remaining racks started.
