We finally made it to sunny California on Sunday. Driving from Dallas to Silicon Valley was a crazy idea. We were exhausted when we arrived at the hotel -- although we did make it in time to see the Cowboys game.
It was an amazing drive on I40. We saw a 'road-runner' scoot across the road in New Mexico and there's amazing stargazing out in Arizona. It was funny to go for miles with no sign of humanity, and then come across an Indian casino on the side of the road. Really, a casino in the middle of nowhere. This trip gave me a great appreciation of those earlier pioneers who crossed the American West with covered wagons.
At this point, we are in our new apartment surrounded by boxes. I'm slowly making my way through them -- at least I finally cleared the ones in the kitchen. The guest bedroom/office looks more like a storage room. So we had to clear out space for the Comcast guy to hook-up the modem by the desk, at which we can access by way of a path through the boxes. Oh, and I still have yet to find our drinking glasses...
