Hubby 2 Lubby ~ Texas or Bust!

Yesterday's departure for Lubbock didn't happen. And that actually wound up being a good thing, for if Neil had left as originally planned, he would have not had the occasion to gain a travelling companion.

The road trip buddy was 'Miah (short for Jeremiah), a confident and take-charge young man who was Ariana's friend. Oh yeah, 'Miah can be a bit cocky and mouthy, but we love him still the same. He's a fine young man who very seriously takes his responsibility to accompany and assist Neil on his major move to Texas.

Everyone was up early, and it was a rainy and still dark morning when 'Miah and Ryan started loading up the truck.

The rain made the loading ramp slippery, and 'Miah had fun sliding down the ramp.

After the truck was loaded, 'Miah and Neil paused before closing up the truck.
After locking up the rear of the truck, the next step was to get Neil's car up on the trailer.

After the car was up on the trailer, the front wheels had to be strapped in tight.

And once that was done, the axle had to be chained to the trailer as an added safety precaution.

Now the boys were all set to roll, with 'Miah at the helm.

Here they go. . .

. . . down the road.

And at the very end of the road. . .

. . . they make their final turn onto Route 6.
Neil and 'Miah are one their way to the wild, wild west.
Have a safe and fun trip, guys!
