ARKANSAS!!


We made it! After a long LONG drive through the Rocky mountains of Colorado and the plains of Kansas and Oklahoma we made it to the beautiful state of Arkansas. We're in Little Rock, which is right by a big river called the Arkansas river. We left Friday at noon stayed the night in Colby, Kansas and drove all day Saturday to get here by 9:30pm. It took us about 22 hours total and the last three hours of our drive was accompanied by a thunderstorm and it has been raining ever since! So we haven't really experienced too much humidity yet. As soon as we drove up Eric and his friend Joe decided they had to see the new Wolverine movie at the IMAX theater down the road. (everything is really close here :) :) ) So I went along and it was a really good time before we start up the summer work. Eric starts selling tomorrow and I will start looking for a job this week. We'll see what I come up with. I decided I'm going to go knock doors with Eric once a week to see how we do. It has been SO nice to not have school though.. no homework! It'll be a nice change, especially since this past semester has been so busy!
