Moving, Part III
Posted by Zane under: Business; Personal .
Yesterday Jenn I and I went to Spartanburg to pick up the truck. OMG that thing was huge, 25′ to be exact! It might as well have been an 18-wheeler it was big and it sat up high too. Can you imagine little ol’ me driving that big truck? Well we got it back to the apartment safe and sound. Both Jenn and I have to work (our last day on the job) tonight, then Sean and Katie were coming up later that evening to help us pack everything up. Jenn got off at 9:00 pm, Sean and Katie got there shortly there after, and I got off at 10:30 pm. We didn’t stay up too much longer after I got home because we wanted to get an early start in the morning.
Well everyone was up and rolling at about 7:15 am. Sean and I immediately started loading the truck with the mattress’ and box springs followed by our new bedroom suite. My parents got there at 9:00 am to help as well, boy did it get crowded in that apartment with 9 people there. When they got there Sean and I had the truck about 1/3 of the way full with stuff stacked to the ceiling. We continued at this rate until about 11:30 when we took a break to eat lunch. We finally got the last article in the truck at 4:30 pm. I personally didn’t think that it would take that long to get everything in there. Who would’ve thought that you needed to be a logistics major to get everything to fit right? We said our goodbyes and thanked everyone for their hard work and help and then we were on our way. <br><br> Jenn and I drove and drove until we just couldn’t drive any more. We stopped in Colonial Heights, VA for the night. Colonial Heights is just south of Richmond, VA by about 10 miles on I-95. My goodness was it nice to lay down after that long and exhausting day of packing and driving.
Thanks again Sean, Katie, Mom, Dad, and Cassie for your hard work and help! We couldn’t have done it without you all!
