Moooving on up

Hello Virginia
We have arrived! The Bode Trio has Relocated! We now live in Norfolk VA, just off base. I have only had a few days to do research but it looks like Norfolk will keep me busy for a few years. There is tons to do no matter where you are or how fine your taste is. We have plans to do at least one family activity here in VA every month we are here.
The Virginia adventure began when we cleaned our house in South Carolina after a day of flying. It took every ounce of strength we had to get it done. We managed to only get 2 1/2 hours of sleep then drove to VA. Russell was perfect. We started off a little rough, so we took a pit stop at wal-mart to buy a baby toy with lights and music. He slept or watched his toy the rest of the trip. Randy Drove the truck piled to the brim, with both the cats. While I drove the Honda with the baby in the back seat.
WE had a couple of very fusterating turn arounds, but in the end we made it to our destination. An extended stay in chesepeake. Saturday morning our house hunt began, with news paper and map in hand. By monday we were ready to pick either a house or an appartment that we had looked at. Then we realized there was a house that we missed. So we stopped by, and the house was being shown to another couple who were eager to sign the lease. We didn't think we would even try for it, but then the landlord called and offered a price we couldn't refuse. So we now have a house and I will post photos as soon as I can.
Untill then we are Home
