We arrived back in Tulsa on June 14th to finish packing and load up the mule (our Jeep). These few days were probably some of the hardest days we have had to go through in recent times, as we were taking the final step of faith in leaving our home and friends. We had an awesome 4 years in Tulsa, and made many close friends. We will miss them all greatly, but have hopes that we can see them again soon.
It took us a good two days to finish up the last minute packing and to load all we own in the Jeep. We had doubts about how much the Jeep could take, but we were able to load all but a box of books and a baby backpack, all of which we can wait for.
The plan was to ship the hard plastic boxes and a couple of luggages from Monterrey once we crossed the border. In doing this we would avoid all that extra weight going through the various mountain ranges of Mexico.
Thank you so much Kenneth (and Oliver) for letting Lily and I share your home for the last 9 months as we prepared for our journey south. You have been such a blessing to us, and we will miss you both! We have great memories of hanging out with you, and hope to see you in Oaxaca soon!
