The Move

So I just did what might be the last upload of photos from my cell phone to my computer in more than 6 months (it gets shut off from Los Angeles in less than 2 weeks and the laptop never leaves Rochester) and have a couple photos to show from the move :)  It's crazy how the "big move" feels so long ago - I think that must be what happens when you get sick and time slows down - but I haven't even been home a full 4 days.

Playing tour guide in Tampa the day before the move... (dirty clothes, dirty hair, no make-up... it was moving week!)

This was about 80% of my stuff.  Waiting to go into the van the next day....

This was the all important packing test of my backpack... Still much heavier than I would like it to be!!

Pria was packed the night before (filled with pretty much just clothes and bedding) 

and the van was packed in the weeee hours the next morning and then we were off!

Pria did not like the cold in North Carolina Saturday morning.  From 83 degrees to 35 degrees.  This was my reminder that I would not be getting anywhere close to 55mpg in the cold!  

(I definitely do not get to see that warning light often in Florida :)

Oh, hello DC!  I so rarely get to drive into DC from the South, 

but coming in with this view is magnificent!

Navigating to Rachel's apartment in Capitol Hill.  BEAUTIFUL day in DC!

Visiting Beth for dinner!!

Proof that all of my stuff made it back safely.... 

and mostly into the basement within 24 hours to mom's delight.

And this was the beach I was relaxing on just 7 days ago.... Oh, Florida... minus your bugs and humidity you do have what I need to live: sunshine, sand, and surf.
