On July 13th Nate dropped Athena and Ember at Bishop Airport to fly to Austin, TX and the journey to began. Nate drove the U-Hall while Copper and I drove Nate's Dodge RAM. The weather was great except the one down pour that we drove through. Bill reminded me to take the walkie talkies and that made communication between vehicles so much better. We arrived early three days latter and were able to get the truck unloaded without incident, kind of.
On the 18th Andrea picked me up at Nate and Athena's and took me to the airport in Austin where I flew to Florida to help my mom after a bad reaction to a new medication she was taking. Glad to report she is doing much better. I left Tampa and flew home on the 29th only to turn around on the 31st and fly, with Bill back to Orlando for the American Culinary Convention.
So that was my month. Now I bet you would like to see some pictures!
