Hitting the Road

[Dori & Rua]

It has been a while since I have been active on DK...I appreciate the emails and comments from many of you inquiring about how we have been doing.  The past almost 6 months have been very difficult for me.  Rua and I will be hitting the road tomorrow afternoon to head out to our new life in California (my brother Ralph is flying out tomorrow and helping drive us back).

 

We'll post our adventures once we are settled into my sisters house (where we will reside while I look for a job and then find a house).

 

Rua & I will be at the SF Doodle Romp on Sunday, April 22, and the IDOG fundraiser event in San Jose on Saturday, April 28.

 

And then look out DK...Rua & I will be back on DK.

 

Please pray for a safe and uneventful journey for us.

 

Thank you all!

p.s.  Rua got a major haircut today...I had someone from the groomer's staff take pictures...I'll post when I get them.

Your post reminded me of this picture. 

A few years after DH retired from the Air Force and we had built our dream home and thought we were settled for life I was offered a job transfer to Connecticut.  We agonized over the decision of what to do.  Made two visits to CT house hunting before we finally decided that we would take the plunge and go for it.    After we made the decision we walked into the hotel gift shop and found this picture framed and hanging in the gift shop.  We took it as a sign that we had made our decision, Don't Look Back, just follow the path to our new life.  We still have the sign hanging in our house today!

This is a great picture, someone should add a Rua into it!

Dori !!! Best of luck to you as you travel!  I am so glad you will be with your family!  I have always admired the woman you are!  Can't wait to hear all about your new adventures in Cali!  Sounds like you and Rua are "jumping" right in!  Enjoy your romp and upcoming events!

Praying for a safe trip to California for you & Rua! Good bye to your old life! Good days are waiting for you!

Just a quick update. Left Omaha NE at 3pm yesterday and arrived at my sister Dawn's tonight at 10:07 Pacific time. Rua was incredible during the 1700 drive.

Will do a blog soon

Glad to hear to have arrived safe and sound. We drive about 300 miles when we visit my parents and that is almost as much as I can stand, 1700 mi is a looooooooooooong drive. Yay Rua, being a good doodle sure made that 1700 mi a lot easier.

So glad to hear you've arrived safely.
