We now live in Cane Ridge, TN (near Nashville). We moved in the beginning of May and took two days to get here. The first day, we drove for about 13 hours and didn't get too far because of the weather in Wyoming. It was snowing, raining, windy, hailing, icy and there were wrecks everywhere. There was a surprising amount of construction everywhere, and we ended up stopping in Kearney, NE. We started calling hotels to get a room in Kearney, and the first one said they were booked up... the second one was booked up... the third, and the fourth and the fifth were all completely booked! We were so confused, because who stays in Kearneey, NE? Turns out, we found a hotel with one room left, and we got it! The receptionist said that the college graduation was the following day, so most of the hotels were booked.
The next day we drove through Missouri, Iowa, Illinois, Kentucky and finally made it to Tennessee! There was some rain, but it wasn't nearly as bad. We hit 5:00 traffic in St. Louis, which slowed us down a bit, but we finally made it to our apartment complex around 11:00PM. We then found out that we were on the third floor, which almost killed me. Jeremy was so sweet and moved ALL of our stuff from the car to the apartment. I unpacked everything within 45 minutes and then I was so surprised at how much we DIDN'T bring considering how packed my sonata was.
I believe this sunset was in Kentucky.
The drive actually went by rather quickly. On the second day, my hand and arm started hurting a lot and felt like there wasn't enough blood flow. We ended up stopping more often (every 2 hours or so) to just walk around because of it.
I'm so happy that we finally made it here! It's so beautiful, warm and sunny! I love the humidity and am so excited for our adventures this summer!
