Well, we are now mostly moved into storage. All of our "heavy" items are in the storage space and we actually have some space left (after some creative maneuvering). I had a couple of friends help me out and we accomplished most of what I wanted to get done. My wife and I are exhausted and bruised but we are happy about how things went.
Now we get to play house for six weeks in our friends home while they are out of town. This home must be in the center of the cicada infestation around Baltimore. I mowed the lawn on Saturday evening and those insects were deafening. I am not kidding. I could still hear them clearly above the mower engine. I hope I do not go insane listening to continuous chirping.
All in all things are going well as we enter into our first week. We have managed to keep the fish alive and the carpet clean. Just a few more boxes and one or two trips to the storage facility and the Great Move of '04 will be finished.
