The Move to the Midwest
We took an arduous journey of 3 and 1/2 days to travel from Seattle to Milwaukee this summer on our move. It seemed fitting that the morning we left Seattle, we were ushered out by a summer rainstorm. Leaving our house was hard to do..... above was our last picture of the house in Maple Leaf.
We had the Subaru loaded up with some of our belongings, 2 cats and a dog and as many of the houseplants that we could fit. We thought we would take our bikes in case the moving truck didn't arrive in Milwaukee for a while.
Our first night was spent in Wallace, Idaho at the
Stardust Hotel. We have stayed in this small
mining town before and it is one of my favorite
places that I have been recently.
It is also home to the trail of the Hiawatha.
Before we left Wallace, Henry and I took a morning walk to explore some of the back streets which seem unchanged by time. Here is Henry taking in some of this historic town.
