Moving to Monterey

Ready, set, go!!!  We just spent the past week saying goodbye to friends and family, packing up our home in Novato and moving to our first stop of Monterey, CA.  We had some hiccups along the way with finding the right housing and are now temporarily in a beautiful hotel in Carmel Valley.  Really, we can't complain!!  The area is beautiful and we celebrated with lunch and dessert in Carmel-By-the-Sea.  Stanley and Dwight are just getting settled but they seem to be handling it just ok!  We should hopefully be in our "permanent" house by Tuesday, but at this point we will see...  No worries, as of right now the beach is beautiful, the food is amazing and the animals are happy.  We will worry about the rest later!!  Work starts Monday!

After a long week of packing up and putting finishing touches on our house

Dwight is ready to go too

Our new (very temporary) home until our housing gets worked out.  I guess its very hard to find a rental in Monterey for only 3 months, which is understandable but very stressful at the same time.

Dwight settles in right away...

Carmel-by-the-sea... did you know there are no addresses in Carmel?  Your house is known by "3rd from the corner" or something like that.  We couldn't believe it!

But with a view like this, who cares?

We had an amazing lunch and sat outside where the air was what could only be described as "refreshing"

Then of course, finished off with some yummy fudge.  We voted, and salted caramel won for best tasting, which we thought was appropriate!

I probably gained a pound just today, oh well...

Everyone worked hard this week and deserves some rest and relaxation!!

I love you!

Our Plan...

As a Physical Therapist myself, I never thought there would be any other perks to marrying another physical therapist other than the fact that we understand when the other has a tough day with "all low back stenotic patients." I was wrong. It was one day in June that my husband Jason and I decided that we were going to take advantage of our both being physical therapists. We realized what a unique situation we were in and that we could use it to our advantage. We decided to embark on a journey of traveling the country through the medium of " traveling physical therapy" where we will work for 3 months at a time in different places throughout the United States. We have no idea where we will be in a year, even 6 months! What we do know is that we will experience some amazing places throughout the United States of America that we most likely would never have the opportunity to see. Our goal is to document our journey through this blog to not only allow our friends and family to keep track of us during our travels, but also so we can look back and see where we have been and remind ourselves of the amazing sights we have seen. Stay tuned... first stop is Monterey, California where the beach is calling our names (let's be honest, the golf courses are calling Jason's name!!)

Who's all going:

Jason and Janey
