New Adventure

In June Shane got a job offer to be a manager at a walmart distribution center in North Platte, NE. We prayed about it and knew that it is where the Lord wants us to be at this time. Thankfully, North Platte has a population of about 25,000 people, so that made it a little less frightening. On Sunday, July 7th we got to fly out to North Platte to meet the general manager and to find a place to live. We flew out of Pocatello early in the morning on the 7th to SLC, then to Denver, CO and finally to North Platte. The plane from Denver to North Platte was super small and fit about 19 passengers. The take off and landing was a little rough, and Shane and I about lost our lunch. We couldn't wait to get off that plane. We got our rental car and drove to our hotel. We drove around for a little while and went to dinner at applebees. On Monday we went to the DC to meet the general manager and got a tour of the building, which was huge! Most of Monday and Tuesday were spent  looking for a place to rent. It was a lot harder than we thought. Rent was higher than we expected and most places wouldn't allow outdoor dogs. On Tuesday night we had the opportunity to go out to dinner with the general manager and his wife. On Wednesday at 8:00pm we finally signed a lease agreement that would allow dogs. We flew out Thursday early in the morning. It was very nice to be able to see where we would be living. We are still nervous and scared to move, but we know it will be good for us.
