Today was the final day in the car together. It was a short drive from Troutville, VA to my new home and we couldn't have timed it any better. As we pulled up in front of my apartment, the ABF Freight Truck with my relocube also pulled up. After I signed the shipping papers and the cube was placed in a parking spot, it hit me that I had finally reached home.
I'm really lucky that my dad agreed to embark on this journey with me. Had I done it alone, I wouldn't have stopped at half the places that we stopped at and I wouldn't have had the opportunity to make great memories with my father. I know I'll never forget Bucksnort, Tennessee or watching my dad eat a Hardee's Thickburger. I'll never forget the subtle drifts or the hike to jumpinoff rock. I'll also never forget the excitement in my dad's eyes at finally seeing the places he heard of as a boy. Thank you Dad.
