Yes Barb. This will be our 4th drive cross country. Ok, only 3d for hubby since the drive from CT to CA in 2002, it was just me and Courtney and the cats. Hubby was already in HI. He flew out there 3 months earlier.
It is a great drive, I now have a Tom-Tom to help, plus I have this REALLY COOL atlas that I take everywhere with me.
It will be a rushed trip, since I KNOW we won't get the extra time we are wanting, but as long as we are off the pebble, NEVER to come back, I'll be happy.

That certainly is great news! I hope all goes well with the move and the drive! PS: it's above North Carolina, don't want to confuse anyone else :) When we go camping in VA maybe we can meet up :P

Even though I haven't "met" you yet on the board, I can feel your excitement! Congratulations! Virginia is an awesome place to live (I've lived here all of my life) :-)

Terri - I can tell that you are doing the hApPy DaNcE!!!!!!! I am so happy for you! We visit my BIL in VA frequently. He lives about 30 miles east of DC, near Fairfax. If you are anywhere near, maybe we can meet sometime and scope out the LQS's.

Thanks for sharing the good news.

YEAH!!! Virginia is a wonderful place, are you going to be in Norfolk? Only a few hours from my house and there's a really fun quilt show every February in Hampton. You'll have a blast coming across country that time of year.
