And Here We Are

After 12 days on the road and about 4,100 miles driven, we finally made it to Cambridge around 12:30 this afternoon. It's so nice moving into a furnished apartment, you don't end up sitting on the floor for the first few days!

Memphis was fantastic. The BBQ competition was amazing, with hundreds of barbeque "teams" from all over the south coming with their cookers (and kegs) to compete. It had the feel of a giant fraternity party combined with a huge county fair. Unfortunately, something disagreed with my stomach, so we didn't quite get our 12 hours of driving in the next day. This left us pushing to complete the final 15 hours of driving yesterday, and awful construction traffic in PA and NY finally destroyed any chance we had of getting it done. We bunked down out near Hartford around 1AM and finished the drive this morning.

So, we've moved! We'll be posting a lot more pictures over the next few weeks, but that's basically it for our cross-country details. Thanks for playing!
