We're heading up to NY this spring. We had to give our list back in December of places we wanted to go next. Fort Stewart in Savannah was our number 1 choice since we have friends there and have been to the area a few times. It's so nice over there and would have been a great place to spend 4 years. Unfortunately it seems like not many people were given their first choice. Our second choice was Fort Drum. We chose there because it's only a 6 hour drive to see my family. The bad part is that I found out there's a possibility of Quinn deploying pretty soon after we arrive. It's pretty tough being excited about moving closer to my family when there's a chance of Quinn being gone. We are going to have a lot going on in the next year and it's stressful to think that he may not be around.
For now I'm going to try and stay positive. Nothing is set until we get there and find out what's going on. My focus for the next couple of months is trying to find a house to rent that allows a dog. The area isn't as pet friendly as other places we've been, and there isn't a huge selection of rentals in general. It's going to be a little tricky, but we are tired of apartment living so we don't have a lot of options. Hopefully once we get up there and settled I'll feel a little more at ease. At least the food should be better :)
