Westward ho!

Well, we're off!  After posting photos from our time in Kittery and surrounding areas for the past few years, we've pulled up our roots and are heading West-to cowboy country!  Charlotte is heading to the University of Wyoming to study ecology, and Mike is heading to Colorado State University (about an hour south) to study environmental politics.

So, starting in about a week, we'll be regaling you with photos of our new hometowns-Laramie, WY and Fort Collins, CO.  But first, we have to get there!  And that's where this lane-hogging, gas guzzling land yacht comes into play.  We're learning lots about driving with a trailer in a short amount of time, and getting ready to see about 1,900 miles of this country that we've never seen before.  Today, however, we spent some time driving the 200 miles from Kittery to Latham that we've seen lots of times to regroup with Mike's parents, thank Charlotte's parents for their help with packing and car-moving, and enjoy a couple delicious meals before heading West!

Anyway, we hope that all's well with you, and we'll check in again from somewhere further west than here!
