Being sober was short lived, and so was the plan to move to the Grand Canyon. But their mom came up with another plan to move to West Virginia where their other grandparents lived. Once again they were only allowed to bring one thing, and Jeanette brought her rock. It took them a month to get across the country because their car only went twenty miles per hour. When they got there they were greeted by their grandparents but they weren't what they expected. They eventually learned to adapt to their lifestyle.
Soon after they were banished from their house because she thought that the kids were too misbehaved. They didn't have much money but they bought a very shabby house at the top of a mountain. There was no running water, and no running toilet. The only water they had was a spigot outside. It did have electricity but they didn't have the money a the moment to turn it on. They planned on building a new house on the land. He intended to fallow the blue prints of the Glass Castle.
