Apartment hunted!

We found an apartment in Midland a week ago. We're getting a 2-bedroom place on the upper level of a four-unit building. It's a really nice apartment, much larger than what we have now for less money! It's got a cathedral ceiling in the living room, a large balcony and glass window doors, a decent kitchen, washer/dryer hookups, a garage and driveway, and the complex has a pool and hot tub. We're not moving in right away, unfortunately, because it isn't open until July 11. We're going to be in temporary housing until then.

After looking for the apartment, we spent some time hanging out around town. In particular, we spent a nice afternoon at Dow Gardens looking at the tulips and other plants in bloom. It's a beautiful garden. It is going to be strange for us moving somewhere with seasons. I doubt as many things bloom in January there as in Berkeley, but we'll manage. We do miss playing in snow. Thankfully, the apartment complex takes care of the driveway and streets, so we can just play in it and not have to push it around.

Don't forget we have a link to our photos on our home page at the top right, and we've added a link to Scott and Sarah's new blog, where you can see their new puppy Lola.
