Since we returned to the States in August, we’ve spent a lot of time visiting family and friends. According to our calendar, we haven’t stayed in the same place for longer than two weeks over the past four months. We’ve seen a lot of North America out of the window of our car, including farmland in Pennsylvania:
Cottonfields in Arkansas:
clear streams in the mountains of Virginia:
Blue sky and the emergence of fall colors in NC and TN:
Lake Michigan from the shore of Sheboygan, Wisconsin (that’s just fun to say!):
and a snowstorm in the Canadian northwest:
We rented a truck and drove some stuff up the east coast to our daughter’s house:
and borrowed my brother’s Suburban, making many trips to haul old stuff from Susan’s parents attic to the local dump:
Although we are planning a couple more trips up and down the east coast before returning to China in February, we rented a temporary apartment in Pennsylvania to “settle down” a little bit. We were very thankful to find a one-bedroom apartment just a few minutes away from Laurie’s house. Hopefully, we’ll be in town when she goes into labor!
