Recent changes in my life: new job and new vehicle (well, new to me). I work as an Administrative Assistant for Chugach-Alaska Corp subsidiary known as Chugach Government Services Inc. Who would have thought in 1990 when we were in Anchorage Alaska on my first BFC trip that I would work for a corporation headquartered in Anchorage?? Certainly not me!!
The trip to Redstone Arsenal in Huntsville is 42 miles (one way) if I take the cut-through over the moutains -- the more scenic route! If I take interstate 65 and then 565, it is 60 miles. So my Chevy Venture had almost 150,000 miles and this seemed to be the right time to change cars. My new Dodge Grand Caravan was a program car and only had 30k miles on it. Love the automatic side doors and the stow-and-go of the seats for hauling stuff, plus the well in the back to sit your bags of grocery so they don't slip and slide and spill everywhere.
Barron's cousin, Donald Judkins and his wife, Becky, came over for homemade chili and hot dogs last Sunday. It was such fun to show off the house - and they were very complimentary about everything.
We are looking forward to Thanksgiving in our new home. Mom and Dad are driving up on Wednesday, and Elizabeth, Chris and kids will pick Nate up at Birmingham airport for us on Wednesday about 12:30. We'll have time to show off the house and visit and then start the food prep for Thanksgiving meal. Some of Barron's family plan to stop by and spend some time with us over the long weekend too. It's so good to be closer to family!!!!!!!!!
We wish each of you a very safe and happy Thanksgiving!!!

That's funny. That is what our new van is (side doors, stow and go). It is a great vehicle.
