What up from Brooklyn!

It has been two weeks to the day since we pulled the 16 foot yellow moving truck, which contained every possession we own, onto 3rd Place in Brooklyn, NY. Our 4th floor apartment is a 15 minute subway ride from Manhattan! With the help of Chad and Nicci, our move into the new place went with only one hitch...our couch set wouldn't fit through the door of our apartment! With a little "New York" thinking, one of our wonderful Italian neighbors instructed us to remove the legs from the couches, and they got through--just barely. Our place still isn't 100-percent put together but its getting there.

Brooke loves working in Manhattan, she is in her element working there with CBRE. This is the same company she was with in Minneapolis. She works at 200 Park Avenue, a.k.a one of the sweetest area of the city! Her building is only 10-15 blocks from Central Park. 

I have applied to a plethora of jobs throughout the area and interviewed for two of them and am setting up a third at this time. The ones I have interviewed for were both in the Bronx. For those of you who don't know the lay of the land out here, the Bronx is quite a ways away from where we live in Brooklyn. The jobs are actually an hour and fifteen minute train ride away. I know what your thinking, "Holy crap thats a long commute!" What you may not know is that in NYC many people have one hour plus commutes to work...each way, so I won't feel too bad if I get one of the positions. We just need to get used to this whole public transportation thing, which in Minnesota many people consider to be "ghetto", but here if you drive a car your the exception...and you also probably have money or kids. So the job search will continue and we will keep you posted.

So there is your first update on the Hunts in NYC. All is well, and yes Sergeant Pepper is adjusting well to the big city. He is taking well to the pooping and the peeing on concrete! We are going to keep all of you up to date on how things are going here through this blog. 

Love you all!
