Thankfully we did remember to take lots of pictures on our drive out to Chicago. Neither of us had been to that part of the country before and we really enjoyed seeing the Great Plains, although I'm still bitter I didn't see any buffalo or cowboys. Here are a few photos from our 8 states in 4 days extravaganza!
Of course with a name like the 'Great Plains' you know there were some incredibly boring parts to drive through. We overcame them in true Brown fashion...
Now we are in Chicago and we are really enjoying everything so far! Praise the Lord He provided us with awesome friends to stay with while we apartment hunted. Tim and Ashley Van Oss are seriously the most welcoming people in the whole world. You guys are the BEST!
Besides having tons of fun with the Van Osses we have also been crazy apartment searching. Again, thank you God, we found a great place in a very fun part of the city. We are really excited to move in on Sept 1st and use all our stuff again! I also started school this week and so far so good. I am taking 5 classes though which is apparently a lot in Grad school so we'll see how much of a social life I have in the coming months. HOWEVER do not let that stop you from visiting! Seriously people...come visit us! This city is amazing and there are at least 8 million fun things to do every single day. Seriously.
