Today was moving day! The movers arrived early this morning in a HUGE full-size tractor trailer. It still amazes me that they were able to maneuver the thing down our little residential street. The crew consisted of two guys who made very quick work of emptying the house of all the nicely pre-packed boxes and the furniture.
When all was said and done, all of our stuff only filled a small fraction of the trailer. Overkill?? Apparently this truck will load up 7 households on the east coast before heading across to drop them off on the west coast.
And then there was the car. We didn't quite know how it was going to be shipped, perhaps on a flat-bed truck or a big car carrier. Nope, they drove it right into the moving truck!
So all of our stuff is now enroute and will arrive in Seattle between June 16th and 20th. In the meantime, our townhouse is completely bare--which is very weird. We have an air mattress (that packs into a carry-on bag), some things in the kitchen that will eventually get either thrown away or given to Goodwill, and bathroom toiletries that will also mostly get pitched. Anybody need some half-empty bottles of shampoo?

Aww, Rosie's all packed up and on her way! Pretty cool. I wonder what the gas bill is for that giant truck..... Exciting times!!!
Ah, this makes me sad and excited for you all at the same time. I am going to miss you but Seattle is going to be so cool!
