Loving Utah, missing our Long Island Family

Just a quick post:
We moved on July 31st and arrived in Utah on August 5th.  Richard and I are so happy to be back in Midway.  Its such a lovely mountain community - no stoplights!  I just hope I wont spin out in the snow and ice again this year.  :/  I miss our friends back in Freeport, NY of course, but man, I love being in the mountains again!  I love being able to run and bike in the valley and mountains around Midway.  Its lovely.  But I do miss my buds.  And Jones Beach.
We drove through Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, Iowa, Illinois, Nebraska and Wyoming.  We met a wicked hailstorm in Wyoming.  People just don't get a break there.  It got so bad that I pulled over for a little while.  With grateful hearts, we were able to unload our truck with help from Richard's brother and his wife, and his Mom.  Thanks Matt, Felicia and Loretta!  And little Eliza was there to make it more fun!
Cliffton starts first grade this week and I hope we can find a little preschool for Violet.  She is way excited for school!  The kids love having a loft that is just for them and their toys.  I like it too!  Even little Azure has been up there a time or two but not for too long.
That's it for now.
 I miss you guys in New York!
Thanks for being our family.  You are amazin' and you rock!  Ain't no hurricane gonna blow down this  tough group!  Love you!!!
So happy to be around some of my family again.  :)
 Thanks Dagan for helping us out.  A lot.
Onto more adventures...
