Wow. It has been almost a month since my last post. Here is the latest update plus some photos of the moving process.
Recap
We closed on September 16. A week later the first load in a U-Haul truck pulling our 12 foot open trailer and Pam driving the Toyota RAV4. Some pets moved as well. Next trip consisted of the F-150 truck pulling a U-Haul 6 x 12 foot trailer, Pam in the Toyota, and the rest of the animals to be moved. I return to work. Forth trip was Halloween weekend, F-150 pulling a 5×8 foot U-Haul trailer filled with (mostly) garage stuff.
In between I got rid of a lot of item I did not want to move, including Ford tractor parts, my old Macintosh computer collection, my Gilson lawn tractor and attachments, and a number of smaller items, many left on our corner with a “Free” sign on them.
Current status
Pam is working on projects in Elma, I am working and packing the remainder of the garage in De Beque, and we are moving forward with the sale of the house. A few issues there having to do with this being a manufactured home. There is some additional paperwork having to do with titles that needs to be done. The County changed rules in 2010, four years after we bought the place, and now we have to get some additional title work completed. Always something.
Photos
The rest of the post will be mostly photos and captions. There is a lot going on, including Christmas preparations, but more in-depth news will have to wait for another post. Here are a bunch of photos:
Next Up
I hope to make another trip to Elma over the Thanksgiving weekend with an open trailer, moving my motorcycles, ATV, and the remainder of the large garage items.
In Conclusion
That’s about it for now. There are more stories and anecdotes that will come in future posts, but for now this is the bones of our move to date.
That’s not for now. Thanks for looking in!
