The great move North

Well time has come for the great move north. We are getting outta dodge, well Memphis. Shadow has no clue what is going on, as all her stuff is getting boxed up for the move.

Ashley has been a packing and cleaning fiend. The entire apartment is in boxes and smells like cleaning agents. We have only one more night at Cabana land, crazy to think that I have been there for five years. But it will always have a special place, as that is our first apartment and where we spent the first year of our marriage.

Later on today we are picking up the moving truck. Some family and friends are helping us pack the truck tonight. Tommorrow we clean the place and leave for Dyersburg. From there we pick up some more furniture, china and Ashley's dad, Jim. Jim is helping us move and getting a taste of what we Wisconsinites call summer. So in two more days my beautiful Tennessee wife will be living in Wisconsin.

Nashville trip

This past weekend, Ashley and I spent the last weekend in Nashville. Which was our last weekend in Tennessee as well. The two of us went there to visit my old high school friend and his wife, Tim and Linsi. They just moved to Nashville from the Milwaukee area.

We had a lot of fun this past weekend. Their place is gigantic and sweet looking. All nicely decorated. We ended up hanging out on Friday night and watched Dodgeball the movie, which was very funny. Saturday we went to the gran ol opery hotel and mall. The hotel is huge, and it has a small river inside the place. That evening we were going to go to a festival called taste of Music City. When we finally got there they were sold out of tickets. So after a long search we finally found the Golden Corral. All you can eat for $8.99, and the food was good.

Sunday the four of us went minature golfing. Tim had the lowest score, but the Bell's had the lowest total score and the only hole in ones. So we ended chipped in for breakfast at the Waffle House. It was great to visit with Tim and Linsi, before we left Memphis.
