Go West!

We recently found employment in Janae's hometown. It will be a good move for us. I'll be working for a fire testing company called Western Fire Center, Inc. where I'll be doing a variety of fire tests. This new job required us to make the big move from Panama City, FL to Longview, WA. It took a week to travel over 3000 miles, with only one tire blow out (near Delhi, LA) and two stops at siblings houses. We arrived at our destination and moved into our new house here in Longview. Janae loves our new home. The pictures are from our trip out to Washington as well as the new home. We don't have our furniture left, so what you see is stuff that we had stuffed in our car or stuff we've borrowed from Janae's parents.
