The Great Adventure - Day Six and Seven

Woke up early with the older girls and got ready to head out on the road again - we really enjoyed out time with the Hanson's but it is time to move on and head to PA.  We said 'see ya later' to Will and Gill and Jared took us to the church to pick up the trailer and drop off the older girls at the bus!  It's hard to say good-bye, but we hugged the girls and packed up the trailer, said 'so long for now' to Jared and agreed to find a half-way point to meet for the weekend once their schedule freed up!  So, that made parting a little easier. 


Otto called the Cooney's and we set our sights (and GPS) on Thornville OH - a nice 13 hour drive.  But, worth it to see our friends; Paul was waiting up with Kaylie and two cold beers that tasted sooo good after the long drive!  We got a good night sleep then woke up to Sheryl cookin' up some sausage and coffee brewing.  After breakfast, Sheryl and Paul gave us the 'grand tour' of the city along with Buckeye Lake and all the hang-outs!   Thanks Cooney's for the great visit, we've missed you.  We will definitely be back to visit once we get settled in PA.

We left the Cooney's and headed out on the last leg of our journey to Pennsylvania - it was a short drive in comparison to the rest of the days - we passed through a small part of West Virginia, then soon drove into Pennsylvania; and finally, we pulled in to the campground around 5:30 and set up camp. 

Welcome to Pennsylvania!


Otto's work is in New Stanton

 We are at Fox Den Acres which is only about 2.5 miles from the Supervalu warehouse, so it will make a short drive for Otto this week.

our home for the next five days!
We headed out to Red Robin for dinner, then to the grocery store for some food for the week.  After we got back, I found a church to attend mass in the morning and caught up on emails, bills, etc.

It still seems a bit unreal that we are here in Pennsylvania and this will be our home state for awhile!

Our adventures continue as we begin to settle in here; finding a house, unpacking and then looking for a job!

Thanks for your prayers for a safe journey..... now the journey continues in Pennsylvania!
