Moving day?

Well, we thought that the truck was coming to get our stuff on Friday or Saturday; that didn't happen. Looks like JAARS will be getting our stuff from the Wycliffe warehouse the week after we leave for NC. We finished transferring our stuff to pallets in the warehouse on Friday. Saturday was sort of an adventuring day. We figured that it was time to do a touristy thing in Texas, having been here since July 2004. So, we went to the Creation Evidence museum in Glenrose and the oldest Dr. Pepper bottling facility in the world in Dublin. I forgot to check how far these places were from home when I was copying the maps from the internet so we were kind of driving into the unknown the whole way, never sure when we'd arrive until we saw the highway signs to the next destination. However, the trickiest part of the trip was actually the last 15 miles, on the stretch of I-20 that we've travelled dozens of times. There was an accident for which they shut down all lanes of I-20E and made us exit. We ended up finding our way back to Camp Wisdom Rd while trying to get back onto I-20 post-accident site and then getting waylaid again by construction and a poorly marked detour. However, we did make it back safe and sound, in time to catch the last half of the expanded version of "Return of the King", playing in the apartment next to ours. A nice day. Tomorrow, the Cleaning of the Apartment begins.
