20 years ago today

20 years ago this morning, John and I rolled into Fountain Hills, signed the mortgage on our house and moved into our home.
I can't believe it's been that long.
It was Labor Day week when we left. The movers arrived on Tuesday.
We left on Wednesday in our van - with our dog Willie, our 3 cats - Meow-Meow, Squeaker, and Smudge, and our parakeet Nikki that chirped for 2500 miles.
We stayed in Dayton, St Louis and Amarillo on the way.
We arrived in Flagstaff that Saturday.
We stayed in motels in Flag and Phoenix Sat/Sun and arrived in Fountain Hills on Monday morning.
Our furniture didn't arrive until Thursday so we camped out on the floor until then.
We spent a ton of money those first few days buying appliances and rugs and we enjoyed every minute of our new life. 
Moving to AZ was the best move we ever made. We never regretted it.
