Well, to sum it up, we've been dating for many years and the length of the process (had to go through USCIS in CA :( ) made it that I planned things to move as soon as I got the visa. VJ has been a great help in that regards. We just couldn't envision staying separated for any longer than necessary. :)

Congratulations on getting your visa! Good luck with the big move to ND! I used to live there while going to school on F-1, its definitely a culture shock from living in a bigger city! Lots of open country! Where I lived in they still accept cheques for everything! groceries, gas, clothing! Its enough to drive a person mad waiting in line! Anyways good luck with your travels!

Thank you, minnew :)

As far as I know, they still accept cheques. I know what you mean about the wait it creates, but on the other hand, for people who don't want to use a debit card and/or don't like carrying large amounts of money with them, or even if you have just ran out of cash, being able to pay by cheque is a plus in my book ;)

Yup, lots of open country indeed. Nothing to block the view and lots of wildlife :)

We're leaving on Sunday evening, so should be home by Wednesday or Thursday. I can hardly wait! :) :) :)

There were definitely some times that writing a cheque came in handy...waiting for payday! Haha! At some places they process the cheques electronically now (like a debit card) and give you the cheque back! Yes indeed, lots of wildlife! The opening of deer season is like a state holiday! Don't expect the kids in school and the spouses take their vacation time! I am definitely a city girl! LOL Anyways, good luck to you and your future husband!
