Moving Trip - Day 1
Packed up car and truck and called Dad before leaving for Meridian (0800). June offered to drive the Probe for me and I drove the Toyota. No problems on the way up - I-10, I-65, back roads to US-45 in Alabama. In Meridian by noon - lunch at McDonalds with Andy and June. Met property manager's representative (landlord had a heart attack last week...). Lease seemed to be in order, but I'm not sure how this will all turn out - he didn't sign it yet. Unpacked truck and got Kiska settled in the back yard - he has food for at least two days. I hate to leave him, but I'll be back soon. Drove back with Andy and June in the Ford and made it to Mobile in good time. Dinner at Pizza Hut. Home by 2100.

Househunting Trip - Day 3
Woke up at 0730 - went back over to new offices to pick up some paperwork and reading material. Checked out of hotel around 0845. I think I've settled on one of the townhouses I saw yesterday - I'll have to sign a lease when I come back at the end of the month. Took MS-39 to I-20, then on US-45 towards Alabama. Got pulled over just after crossing the border - just a warning... Same detour in Citronelle - eventually on AL-135 (?). Took me to I-65. On I-10 in Mobile - all the way back to Milton. Home by 1245.

Househunting Trip - Day 2
Slept until 0730. Over to housing office as soon as they opened - got a list of houses to look at. Located and drove to all of them - some in Meridian, some in Marion. Had a showing at noon (place was alright) and then set up some more for later. Explored the town and my new offices. Did some shopping and had dinner. Got to see a few townhouses around 1930 - they look good. I think I like Marion better than Meridian - drive to work is better and still not too far from shopping and restaurants. Went back to room and watched TV until 1100. Ready to hit the ground with new places tomorrow...

Househunting Trip - Day 1
Left Milton at 1505. Took FL-87, FL-89, US-90 and Avalon BLVD. I-10 to Mobile - took US-90/98 exit (near USS Alabama) and continued over to US-45. Ended up in bad area of Mobile... Eventually on better section of road (two lane almost all the way...) and continued north towards Meridian. Detour at Chunchula (AL-63, AL-217, AL-21 and AL-96). Back on US-45 at Citronelle. Arrived in Meridian at 1900. Luckily, got a room for the night - even without a reservation. Watched State of Union Address in room with dinner (McDonalds). Met some guys at the club who know friends of mine from Pensacola. Looked at local maps - have to find a place very soon (only have three days)... Bed at midnight.
