We're heeerrre. The day started with about 10 inches of snow to plow - any takers ? Nah, I didn't think so. I'll do it myself, said the little Red Hen, and I did. Whew! done, got the last of our belongings out of the house and into storage at 11:00 this morning. We've lived here about 10 1/2 years. Got married on the deck in the back. Lot's of memories. So you can imagine Teresa had a few good melodramatic tears while walking through the empty house and reflecting on all the goings on of the last 10 years.
Got through the sale closing of our house in 1 hour then over to the accountant for an hour. Then whoops, something came up a work - Got to love Ron in Charlotte. He's really great to work with. Pretty demanding, but he covers my butt when necessary. So into the office for a couple of hours. We worked our issues out and got our stories straight. We're leaving the truck at my office.
We've got a room at the Holiday Inn in Elk Grove village for $89 for the night and we can leave our car parked here for up to two weeks for no additional charge. Go figure, it would have cost about $170 at O'hare. Now that's a deal, so we're leaving the VW Beatle here. King size bed, free wireless access pool and Teresa's going to wander up and see if there's a hot tub, too.
Think about it... on vacation, in a hotel, hot tub at the ready. What's next ? Right, time to go now.
See you in Long Beach, CA.
