We officially closed on our home in Colfax WI on October 28th; however, the actual moving process has been done in steps. Since Brian was working here and moved in before I did, some items were sent with him. Each time I came out here, my little VW Beetle would be loaded to the max. Once I got a job in the area and officially moved to Colfax, I had a professional mover bring all the large items as well as some tubs and boxes.
This past weekend we returned to Alexandria together so Brian could get his wonderful 1978 Ford truck that was given to him by his good friend, Bill Ellenberger. We loaded up the back of the truck with bikes, chairs, skis, etc and hoped he would actually make it through the Twin Cities and back to Colfax.
Before he pulled out, I snapped a couple photos because it reminded me of either the Beverly Hillbillies or perhaps the Depression era where families piled into their vehicles along with every thing they owned and headed out West in hope of a better life.
Those who know us would not be surprised that we would have to at least have one part of our moving experience be crazy and unique.
