At 10 am, we were packed and ready to drive from Idaho to Utah to our following location, 400 miles and 5.5 hours away. Our cat, Hemmes, had already noticed the change in our behavior this morning.
He is getting used to the ritual of traveling, though. Once in the car, he lies down and accepts his situation! I make sure he is comfortable! While in the carrier, I always pet him, talk with him, and treat him occasionally with cat candy. It is so cute when he talks back!






Hemmes started exploring and immediately found the comfortable spot we had created with his blanket for a much-needed nap. After a few hours, he returned to the living room and sat curiously, watching the free-roaming chickens and horses behind the window.
Nervous Excitement: Our Manti Vaccination
We also managed to get appointments for our first COVID shots for our first COVID shots in Manti, UT. We could get our first Moderna shot the following afternoon. I was nervous and excited at the same time.
We were very efficiently vaccinated going through a drive-through setup for vaccinations, similar to a McDonalds drive-through experience. We were advised to wait about 15 minutes in the car to see if we would get any reactions since it was our first shot. Within 45 minutes, we drove off again! Besides a stiff arm, I had no side effects at all.
