Home Sweet Home

We had a long but safe trip back home to Ohio. We got going about 11:30 Friday morning.Rob and his co-pilot Ethan led the way in the U-haul towing his truck on a trailer behind him. Next in line was Cory, Amy and the girls in their truck pulling the boat and trailer. Bob drove Les and Brooke in Rob's van and Jay and I followed them with our truck pulling our cargo trailer. Rob couldn't run as fast as normal due to towing the truck. He had his enormous tool box in his truck and it wanted to sway going down a grade if you were going too fast. Our trailer was really loaded too so a normal 5-1/2 hour trip took about 7 hours. Oh, Gunner their dog was in a cage in the back of our truck under slight sedation. We couldn't get everything in all the trailers and trucks so the balance(mostly Rob's garage junk) was loaded in one of Boyd's trailers and Simon and Barb Knepp brought it over this morning. We had lunch with them , visited a while and then they headed back west. They were going to stop part of the way back for the night. We unloaded the U-haul into the bedrooms, the stuff in Boyd's trailer into Bob's garage and our trailer will stay loaded until the house is finished this week. Brooke was happy to see the U-haul unloaded today as all her clothes accidentally got loaded in the middle of the truck Thursday and Les had to go to WalMart to get her something to wear for the trip. We were all very tired but still managed to get quite a bit of the new walls primed today. Amy fixed hamburgers and a bunch of sides for everyone tonight. We have decided to sleep in a little in the morning and go to 2nd service. Since Sue posted a slide show of the outing at Lou's I will just post a couple. Was great to see all the family together altho I must admit it is hard to figure out who belongs to whom when it comes to all the little ones. Will continue to post pics as the house gets finished.Love to all.
