Finally a new home

It took us three days of driving but we made it!!  We stopped in Effingham, Illinois and Stroud, Oklahoma.  It was a nice drive.  Not too overwhelming since we stopped.  The dogs did so well.  And Nathan did fantastic.  We had an Elmo dvd and a Blues Clues dvd and between the dvds and his naps he was a happy little guy. 

The drive from Amarillo to Clovis was pretty cool.  So many wide open ranches.  LOTS of cows.  We have only seen the run down side of Clovis.   The other side, with Walmart and nicer homes, is up the road a bit.  We'll wander up there tomorrow.  We need a few things.  The BX and Commissary are small.  The BX reminds me of Selfridge, but its neat and organized. 

I am finishing up a few loads of laundry.   And I made dinner tonight.  We are tired of eating out after the three days on the road.  The room in billeting is very nice.  Very roomy. And we have free internet.  YAY. 

We should find out how long the housing list is tomorrow.  The girl at the front desk said folks have only been staying about a week or so. 

IT FEELS LIKE AMERICA.... The Land of Enchantment....
