A year already!?!?!

Wow, has it been a year already? I can't believe it. So much has gone on. We moved, and what a move it was; From San Francisco to the beautiful country side of Pennsylvania.
Our journey began September 4, 2012 and lasted 3 weeks on the road in an RV with an elderly cat that had altitude sickness. We found out the hard way at the Grand Canyon. 

The trip was quite wonderful and adventurous. We pretty much zig-zagged our way through the states. We started out 3 days in Yosemite, continued to Bodie (the ghost town), entered into Nevada, almost hit a cow (damn you, free ranges!!), stayed at the Alien Inn, moved our way to the Utah, Arizona, New Mexico, and saw the most breathtaking views of our country. Words can't even describe how beautiful it is. We then moved onto Colorado, Wyoming, and South Dakota to see the true old west, stayed overnight in a few Walmart parking lots, then headed south through Iowa, Missouri, and into Kentucky for some cave dwelling and bourbon. We then moved into our final leg towards West Virginia and Pennsylvania. 

And of course, I had a great knitting project to keep me busy during the long stretches of road. I made the owl sweater!! Totally cute.

After settling, we temporarily unpacked in our temp house, and started the house hunt. But that's another story all on its own.
