Micah and I made it to Anchorage Alaska! We are very excited to be starting this new chapter in our life. We are currently enjoying the exciting job of finding a place to live. At first the hunt was going a little slow and we weren't having any luck finding places with a move-in date before the middle of October or beginning of November. Well after looking at a dozen or so places we finally think we found a place that will work for us! I am beyond excited to get out of this hotel and back into a place of my own. Anchorage seems to be a nice place so far. We haven't gotten to do much besides the apartment hunting. The mountains here are oh so pretty, I am in love with the scenery. Its been rainy the past few days, today was the first real nice weather we've had since we've been here.
Our road trip was a lot of fun, we made it all the way from Colorado to Utah to Idaho then through Canada and then finally to Alaska! Our trip went pretty smoothly we only had a few bumpy spots in our trip. We had a tire blow out in Canada but the uhaul company sent someone out and they fixed it in a matter of twenty minutes after we called. Once we got back into the states is where we started to run into some real problems, our check engine light came on and the nearest town that had anything opened was 90 miles into Alaska. Thankfully our uhaul made it that far, we stop and got dinner and when we got back into the truck to find a place to sleep for the night the truck took awhile to start and we barely made it into the parking lot of the motel. Micah called the uhaul company and they were supposed to have someone out to check it out and find the problem bright and early the next morning. We were 330 miles away from Anchorage and didn't get the truck fixed until around 5, so we lost a day of travel. Aside from our little problem in Tok we made good time. We got a lot of pretty pictures that I'll post when we really great settled in.
I look forward to the next ten days I get to spend with my sweetheart before he has to go back to work. We have so much to get done and I'll be glad when things start falling into place a little more. Take care everyone.
