***Wednesday, Fourth of July****
I have the day off today but Eric has to work.
I checked out a handful of books on San Francisco from the New York Public Library and I read through a lot of them this afternoon in bed. I'm trying to do as much research about the city before we move there on October 1st. (see previous entry for more details)
I also have been trying to figure out the most affordable way to move cross country....
We have a car, 2 cats, and a lot of stuff (i.e. an entire household) to carry with us.
A POD costs 5,000 dollars. So that's out of the question.
Renting a A UHaul Truck costs about 2,000$ -- in addition to the cost of gas. For nearly an extra 1,000$ we can have our car attached to the back of the truck.
But I received a quote from a moving company that will pick up our boxes and furniture at our front door and deliver them to San Francisco for us. That costs 1,800$
We can go with that company and drive our car to San Francisco. We can fly our cats separately...
Or attempt to take our cats with us for the road trip, although I think they would scream the entire way in agony.
There must be an easier way...Any Suggestions?
We have less than 3 months to figure it out. I'm both excited and overwhelmed...For now I'll just continue my research...
Happy Fourth of July!
