The important part of getting settled into a new town consists of trips to the DMV, post office and other exciting places.
It cracked me up that the DMV was small enough I could see every person working there from my seat. The Post Office must only have 2 employees one of which begun remembering me after my first trip in to obtain a PO BOX.
Cody had to leave town for a few days to celebrate his daughters birthday in Disneyland. Go figure this would be the one time of year we get snow in Rescue. Luckily I had Heather staying with me who is accustomed to the mountain life and taught this city girl how to build a fire! Because it got COLD!
While driving around with Cody as he goes to look at prospective jobs it's likely he hears "where are we now" every 10 minutes or so as my eyes are glued to the window in awe of all the amazing homes on the sides of the hills. It's safe to say I will probably never fully learn my wat around these foothills. But that's ok. I know how to get to the grocery store, Walmart, post office, feed store (yes, that's where dog food is purchased - could have fooled me too) and fuel station! What else could I need?
Well a miniature horse of course! Yep one of those is finding its way to our property this week as a favor to one of codys friends. I have to say that though I have no idea how to care for such a thing. Im quite excited at the idea though!
I found myself a little homesick a few weeks ago but just in the nick of time a chunk of my closest people made the trip to spend a Saturday with us. The day consisted of shooting things, burning things and eating and drinking things. It was PERFECT!
Looking forward to a big garden and lots of flowers once this last storm passes!
