Trip continues

Hi, well no pictures as of yet but I was told they would be forth coming soon. James and Jenny are almost to portland and will be driving into Everett tomorrow. They are tired but doing good. The car has been getting 35 miles to a gallon. Not bad for an older escort and a car that was essentially dumped by another ward member here. But with alot of elbow grease and brothers and a daddy that knows cars and some tender loving care from Jenny too it has made the trip.
They spent a nice day in Salt lake with Eric's brother James and his family. James even has a few new grandkids it sounds like. Ruff them up a bit but bought mormon cookies for them before they left. Sounds like a cd of cars will be soon in the mail to the new little ones too. They were able to go to Temple square and get a sound demonstration and tour the new tabernacle too. Went to the bookstore (but no presents)and just had a good down day. I am told though that I did get a present from cracker barrell..humm? Wonder if that means a tasty bit of cheese? Well guess I have a week to find out just what I got.
Can't wait to get the pictures of the apt and a couple of other road pictures too. They have alot planned once they get to Everett too as Jenny has to sign and be offical, find a bed and some house items, go to the homecoming party to get their passes and offical ok to get on base on friday. Then there is the visiting of family that has to be done. Once Eric gets in then they can find a couch and finish up a few minor things that might need two able bodied boys. So please Jenny if you are reading this send pictures! Take more pictures, and don't forget to get some of Eric too as the ship pulls in and he walks off!
