The Econolodge Adventures have officially begun!

Yesterday we finally set sail. After the work shown on the last post we found out our head gaskets were bad and about 100 miles from blowing the entire engine. Chad did the work again for us, thankfully, and got her tuned up and running like a champ. We spent most of the week in Ishpeming putting in a tile floor for Adam's mom and Dino avoiding the "aren't you supposed to be gone yet?" "why are you still here?" questions from everyone!!
We are now in Rochester, MN at Heather and Luke's (Adam's sister and brother-in-law). The weather is still beyond crappy and still postponing things we need to do to the outside of our van that need dry, warm weather.
OH YEAH! I got a new bike on Friday finally!!!! She's a beaut.
We've had nothing but rain, postponed packages, and breakdowns since we've tried to start this trip. The stress level has been through the roof, but I guess that its the darkest before the dawn and man am I ever ready for the dawn.
