On the journey south!

Well here we are. "On the road again...." We packed up the Uhaul last night and were headed out of good ol Maple Plain this morning around 10. It's nice to be able to start late... As our drive was only about 9 hours instead of 12 or 14. I have to say... The road from MN to DES Moines, IA does not impress me at all. We had no complications but it was so dull it was annoying. Aside from the high winds that made the drive loud, all was well. We saw more stupid drivers than ever! We didn't stop much we prepared in advance and packed things to make our own lunches and dinner. It makes the trip go faster too! We traveled through Minnesota, Iowa, Missouri, and made it to Junction City, Kansas in 9.5 hours! Tomorrow we will head south in to Oklahoma and then stop in Abilene Texas for our final night before driving to our new "home" in lodging on Fort Bliss. We will soon begin the seriousness of hunting for a place to live.... For now, I will lay my head on this awesome pillow, on this pillow top California king bed and sleep... That is... If Zoey allows us to!
