Last Phase Completed

Phase three (?) complete.  Now all we have to do is unpack all those boxes and wonder what we were thinking when we packed them. 

The container showed up at 8 AM sharp (well after I met him at Walmart and led him here).  Roger, the driver, was a great asset.  He got the car out right away and gave us lots of pro tips on how to move furniture around.  As well as doing plenty of heavy lifting.
First unload the Subaru.
These guys knew what they were doing.  I could see many ways we could have really screwed this one up.
And the Subaru makes first touchdown on "Outside roads".

Emil and Sara brought some friends over and they did the heavy lifting and trucked all the stuff that needed to go upstairs.
Now the house is full of boxes and every time you unpack one it quadruples in volume.
Hope the vehicles enjoyed their brief stay in the garage; looks like it will be a while before they get back in.

Well, I better get back to unpacking, Teri is hard at it after a brief phone break.

It's back to Portland this weekend so we'll get a break from it for a bit.

Weather still perfect here.
