After almost 56 years of never having lived anywhere else but this gravel road, it shall seem quite different to not traverse it on a daily basis. Yes, I was gone for stretches during college, but that was about the extent of it! I was born and raised on this road and raised my own children here. I have run many a mile on this gravel road and took many walks down its path. So, it will definitely be a big change for me, but one I am ready to do. Things I look forward to come next week: hugging and holding my new grandson, running on nice pavement anytime of the year and not just when the weather cooperates. It almost always "cooperates" where I am going. I look forward to taking mountain hikes with my daughter and sister and golfing with Mark in the winter. I relish the thought of caring for Drew while his parents are off at work. Many things to look forward to! Things I will miss terribly......Mark when he is home farming, Matt in Omaha, and my friends and neighbors. But, they are all only a plane ticket away so that problem can be resolved in a 2+ hour flight. Chapter 2 of our lives starts in about 39 hours...............whew, I better finish packing!
