Once we were back in utah, Travis and i each visited the dentist, which was a disaster, but ended up being a huge blessing. I was cavity free like usual, but what should have been a quick cleaning and exam for travis turned into an all day experience. First the dentist said he had 5 cavities, then when he opened one up he found out that the root canal travis had about 8 months ago was FULL of decay, so we had to go back to our previous dentist and have him check it out. well we found out travis is unusual in that most people only have 1 root in this given tooth, but travis had 2. so when the dentist filled it the first time he only took care of 1 root. he ended up having oral surgery and lots of stuff to get it fixed, however, since the dentist had made the error, luckily the procedure was free (HUGE relief). but it still made for a long day.
the next morning we packed up the uhaul, said our goodbyes and drove off into the sunrise. it was a bittersweet moment. the drive in total took us 3 LONG days but luckily nothing major happened. there were alot of close calls such as almost running out of gas, almost hitting deer, and almost falling asleep at the wheel. but luckily we survived and so did the car. But the time we arrived at our new home the third night we fell into bed and PASSED out.
Probably the highlight of the trip was visiting mount rushmore. i have always wanted to see it, but its located in the middle of nowhere, so i was happy to finally have an occasion to see the grand structure. and grand it was!!!
We are so happy we were able make it safely. We feel so blessed.
