Salina, KS/KWU Move-In

We were up early and stopped for breakfast at Red Beard Coffee (served by the red-bearded owner himself) in Dodge City before making our way to Salina, KS.
This was our view most of the way...little towns with grain elevators and lots of cattle!
We made it to Salina by lunch time!  Allison is excited to call this home for the next few years!

We spent the next 2 days doing LOTS of dorm shopping,
checking out some hikes and lakes
and visiting with the Wilson's...Allison's amazing host family!
Wednesday morning was move-in at KWU!  It is such a pretty campus and the weather was perfect for move in!
We went to the Student Activity Center for check in
and got tons of help from fellow students/coaches to bring everything from the truck to Allison's room.
Within a few hours, she had converted her room into this very cozy space!  I think she will be very happy here
and I hope she feels like this is her home away from home.
We took her out to one final dinner at Martinelli's and said our goodbyes.  We can't wait to watch her play via live stream and hope she makes the most of her first semester.  
She and her roommate Kaylen seem to get along so well and we hope they make many memories together!
