Hello fellow fuzzie lovers! A fair number of you know me from my numerous posts about the escapades of my tiny but active two-some clan, Sasha and Snowball ... They are both doing great and we are all trying to survive through the sweltering summer heat! Well, this time around I have a monstrous request to share with anyone willing and able to help us. I am going to be relocating from Kansas City, Missouri to Seattle, WA this month (most likely during the week of July 20-27th) and will be driving my 17 U-Haul (and attached car) the entire distance by myself (along with the fuzzies of course!) In lieu of hotel stays, I was wondering if ANYONE out there would be willing and able to PLEASE provide us with minimal overnight accommodations in several places along our route (see travel route below). This would greatly help me reduce my already staggering moving expenses and also provide a sense of added security, being in a home instead of a lonely hotel room. I realize this is a tremendously risky request to ask of total strangers but I can assure you that we are a safe, responsible, friendly trio seeking nothing more than a safe place to rest at the end of each day. I will have a comfortable, inflatable bed and all the food and necessities for myself and my fuzzies so nothing more would need to be provided except the sleeping space and I would be more than happy to provide a "donation" to anyone's 'ferret fund' as a measure of gratitude for your help, by all means! Listed below is a copy of my tentative itinerary and the stops I will need to make at the end of each driving day, as best as I can predict within say 50 miles. If anyone can help or has any suggestions at all, please do not hesitate to contact me directly via email or telephone (660-441-1856) That would be most appreciated! Thanks to everyone in advance for your willingness to help us get home! It s going to be a long trip but I m staying focused on the end result of getting me and my fuzzies to our new place, safe and sound. Thanks again! Cheerio! Jennifer, Sasha & Snowball TENTATIVE Itinerary: Day 1 (July 20): Kansas City, MO to Sioux Falls, South Dakota (arrive around 7-8 pm). Rest for evening near Sioux Falls. Day 2 (July 21): Sioux Falls to Rapid City, S.D. to Sheridan, WY to Billings, MT (arrive 6-7 pm and rest for evening or continue on to Butte, Montana (arriving near 10pm?) Day 3 (July 22): Butte, MT to Missoula, MT to Spokane, WA to ? (I don t think I can quite make it to Seattle this day because that would be about 12 hrs. of driving so I d be stopping somewhere between Spokane and Seattle around 8-9pm I believe).
