"Twenty years from now
you will be more disappointed
by the things
you didn't do
than by the ones you did do.
So, throw off the bowlines,
Sail away from the safe harbor.
Catch the tradewinds in your sails.
Explore. Dream. Discover."
Mark Twain
Herein lies the story
of one young man on a journey...
A Kansas boy turns his eyes to the west
and follows a dream and a girl.
Destination: Seattle
How do three young explorers make their way across this wide land?
More importantly,
How the heck do they get all of their earthly belongings there ?
This is a job for
Huebner & Associates
School of Packing.
All four of our children are
Honors Graduates
of the Huebner School of Packing
and this was the most challenging assignment on record.
Daunting, I tell you!
Reinforcements were called in.
Boxberger Inc. added much needed expertise,
muscle and encouragement.
How was all this loot from three different locations
expertly molded into one small trailer and one pickup bed you ask?
Well let me tell you!
You take 6 people
working all day...
loading and unloading,
measuring and calculating...
arranging and rearranging
re-measuring,
stuffing and reloading.
Waiting and watching,
Bake all day in 100 degree heat,
And you have one very
well done
Load.
It's the Huebner way.
Almost....
Success!
Whew!
Did I mention it was hot?
Job well done, team!
What do you do with a car, a trailer and a pickup crammed full of
three people's treasures?
YOU DO A ROAD TRIP!
After a good dinner and good night's sleep,
we headed our little caravan
WESTWARD.
I started out trying to take pictures of Kevin and Audra in each state
that we passed through....
that was fun for a little while.
I'd tell you which states we were in,
but I have no idea....
I think this one was taken in Washington,..thus the mountains in the background!
Somewhere...not in Kansas anymore.
I am now officially in love with the American West.
Twin Falls, Idaho
Three very precious people.
my boys.
- I'm glad we stopped here
- It was just what we needed to spur us on~
Seattle, here we come!
