A few observations and occurrences as I get settled into my new home and start my internship:
- I officially set up my new post office box (which had previously been unofficially set up by phone) and found a paycheck waiting for me! Someone's on the ball here!
- With the paycheck was a $450 mileage check for September. I knew I'd be doing a lot of driving, but that is A LOT of driving. Methinks it's time to find some books on tape...Kenyon Public Library, here I come!
- I forgot how dark it is in the country! I hope my eyes adjust for all the aforementioned driving I'll be doing. I was sort-of caught off-guard on my first drive back from Northfield the other night. It's wonderful to be able to leave my windows open at night, though, without being awakened by building lights, traffic, and sirens.
- I'm super-happy that the Target and Cub in Northfield are only 10 minutes away. Just sayin'.
- I set up a bank account today and met three people who work there who belong to my congregations. They already mentioned the famous lutefisk supper at Vang, and it's like six weeks away.

We have at least 30 minutes to our closest Target! Sounds like you're having fun though and enjoying small town life!
Personally, I would recommend Northfield Public Library over Kenyon's. Kenyon's has friendlier people but shorter hours and less selection. Whatever card you get will work at both.
