On an overcast, then rainy day in the city of
Kyle & Shannon moved into their new 3rd floor apartment on South Wood Street.
They have big plans for some type of publishing endeavor, so we brought THREE copiers with us from Indianapolis. Kyle had found them through Craig's list & Gregg had made a couple of trips to Indy to purchase them. The copiers now reside in one of the three luxurious bedrooms in the new apartment.

Back at the "old" apartment packing continues.
The guys were real troopers continuing to move furniture & boxes even while it rained. I thought the rain was supposed to hold off until afternoon, but that was not the case.
Lunch break while our 1998 Silver Jimmy is repaired!
We enjoyed roasted peppers & tacos while the Jimmy's front stabilizer pins were replaced. I was so thankful the breakdown had not occurred on the highway, as this was the vehicle Gregg had driven to Chicago by himself on Friday night!
Roxanne was such a good girl!
She even cooperated in the tradition of taking feet pictures.

Jim & I spent Saturday night at the "new" apartment, while Kyle, Shannon, Roxanne, and Gregg spent the night at the "old" apartment.
Sunday morning before breakfast Jim & I walked around the neighborhood park.
We were joined by our feathered friends!

Breakfast at McDonalds.
After breakfast we stopped at Pete's market for some great deals on fresh fruits & vegetables. We started back to Kokomo about 9:00 am & made good time on the trip home. Thor & Mojo were glad to see us even though our pet sitter Nicole had taken very good care of them.
The saga of car problem's continued as we received a phone call from Kyle asking if my car had jumper cables in it. We had driven the Silver Jimmy home because we thought we were leaving the better car for Gregg to drive home later on his own, but I guess that was not the case. A few more phone calls from Kyle & Gregg & it turned out the battery was dead on my Red Jimmy. One new battery later Gregg arrived safely back in Kokomo Sunday night.
Wow! Thanks for the exciting moving day, Kyle & Shannon!
Looks like a very nice apartment. What I want to know is::How in the world did Kyle and Shannon have all that stuff in a small apartment?
ReplyDeleteIt looks like the three bedroom apartment isn't big enough.
What happened to the bike wheels??
Glad Gregg got home O.K.
I’m not sure how everything fit into the old apartment. Kyle & Shannon assure us that the new apartment is big enough. Kyle is working on painting the kitchen white. I don’t know what happened to the bike wheels. That is what struck us as so interesting. You can make up your own story!
