Hey guys. Let me start off by saying that 830 miles in a 24 ft. rental truck is too long. We left at 3:30 in the morning and got here around 9:30 Friday night. Add to that an 8 mo. old baby and it just gets longer and longer. Oh well.

Talk about a change of scenery though. I've never seen so grass so green and trees so thick in all my life. I've been here once or twice before in the spring, but this is totally different. We were driving into town yesterday, and you can't see more than 5 ft. into the trees it's so thick. And it's supposed to rain every day this week. Weird.

Anyway, that's about it. Hopefully in the next couple weeks, we'll get unpacked and a few things fixed up so I can go out and shoot. The KRB is calling out my name.

The important thing is you made it safe and sound. Now the fun of unpacking which is as bad as packing in the first place. Things will work themselves out soon enough. So then you can get back to important things, like shooting your rifle.

830 miles is just a hair further than I drive to go moose hunting. lolHow was your fuel bill?

Glad to hear you made it safe and sound. All the stuff you don't have room for goes to the curb or garage sale.

I think I'll take my chances with getting run out of town. Seems safer. Can't you get some weird disease from being a vikings fan?

I kinda like the Lions. Don't mind the Tigers either. Don't like the pistons. You want to talk about rough, try being a Rockies fan, especially this year.

Oh, and by the way, did anyone hear know that on 140 acres with a 100+ year old house, there's a whole bunch of stuff to do? Who'da thunk it?
