We explored Morton yesterday evening and weren't very successful in finding apartments. We found two complexes that we were familiar with based on their bad reviews on an internet site. We also randomly found some small complexes--none of which looked very nice or had signs up about availability or how to even inquire. Unless we're given some great information about a different building before mid-September, I think we'll end up going with Cape Cod Village. It's quite expensive, but probably worth it. It's the nicest we've seen, there's a lake, they allow animals (cats AND dogs, so we could get a pooch if we wanted), there's a clubhouse (pool, billiards, work out room, tanning facility--all free), and another cool hang out spot with tables and fireplaces outdoors... there's just a lot going for the price and it's a good location too (close to the interstate). I think we would be happiest there and if it didn't work out, of course we'd only have to stay for a year and then move somewhere else. I'm excited; I want it to happen right now, but I know we need to wait until we can save up some more money and Philip starts his job. I'm excited, but still kind of scared and apprehensive, but I know it'll all end up fine. It always does.
