New Jersey Trip










We made the trip down to New Jersey this weekend after the storm with nary a problem. Upon arriving at Jann’s folks house, we dove right in to cleaning them out of house and home, I mean, helping them pack.

In the midst of selling their house of 48 years and moving to Madison, Indiana, there was a lot to do and a lot of stories to hear. Jann’s sister Starr from LA (http://www.lastarrcakes.com/index.html) had her flight cancelled so was still there. We felt really lucky to see her and she plans on staying through the week.
Sister Robin (Not a Nun) came in today from San Francisco to help out for the week, and Jann will drive her folks, Herb and Iris, to Indiana at the end of the month. They have purchased a new home near sister Nancy and her husband Benny.

There was a lot of reminiscing as we explored the artifacts and one last taste of South Jersey cheese steak sandwiches and cream donuts.

That's a big move! How sad to be moving away from 48 years of roots. But on the other hand... a new home in another state must be exciting! Hope the move goes smoothly.
