We left Tacoma on September 24, 2012 and arrived in Madison Indiana on Oct 3, 2012. The trip was long but enjoyable. We travelled through 2 provinces (British Columbia and Alberta) and 6 states ( Montana, North Dakota, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Illinois and Indiana). Notable events during our travels:
- Spent time with Grandma Pfenniger, Aunt Pfenniger and family, and friend the Days
- Spent time honoring and reflecting my dad life
- North Dakota is flat and takes 8 hours to drive across!!
- Noah loves the water (we got him into the pool twice)
- Loved the cites of Fernie BC, Grand Forks BC, Osoyoos BC, the state of Wisconsin, the Northern part of Illinois
Tomorrow we start week 3 of 5 in prepartion of our Board exams on Nov 10, 2012. Presently we spend about 6 hours a day / 5 days a week studying and doing question. Grandma and Grandpa Childress been a blessing. They have not only been taking care of Noah during the day but feeding us lunch and dinner! (I wonder if we can keep this going beyond the board exam, say until we leave to Switzerland!)
