For the next 18 months the two of us, Eli and Katy, and our two mutts, Colby and Barlow, will travel the United States three months at a time. Katy, who graduated in December with her Doctorate of Physical Therapy from Elon University, is doing travel therapy and will do 13 week rotations at different locations around the country. We're going to try and use this opportunity to experience as much as we can, and then share our adventures with our friends and family.

Oregon it is!

On December 22nd Katy got an interview with a hospital in Roseburg, Oregon. On the 23rd she got a call from her agent at CompHealth saying she had been offered the job and they wanted her to start January 24th. That was earlier then we had anticipated starting somewhere, but we said yes and decided to go for it. When we looked at a map we realized we'd probably take about 5 days to get out to Oregon as it would take around 45 hours of driving time, and then we looked at a calendar and realized we had about three weeks to get the house packed up, for Katy to study and PASS her boards, and for us to get all our paper work in line in terms of renting our house and Katy's Oregon licensure. It was a daunting task ahead of us, but we knew we could do it. We were gambling a little bit by going ahead and renting our house and signing a contract for Katy to work in Oregon...you see, all of that was contingent on Katy passing her boards...the pressure was on!
