Sorry. Flight ways ave. Bloody predictive text
 
Big fun. Like big love but without the polygamy. Wish you were here too onur, but then whose gonna keep the boys in line up there if you're down here partying with heathens?
 
I'll be there as well. Sorry if this has been mentioned already but where are we suppose to meet up? Don't forget to rent a hand truck! I"ll bring a furniture dolley with four casters.

Ash, if you think Josh needs to rent a hand truck, when in town you can swing by my house and I will lend mine for the cause. Just make sure I get it back. Wish I could be there to help, but I have to work today.

Thanks Rudy. We'll see what the logistics are but I'm sure we can always use more sack trucks. There are 176 boxes in that can....
No word yet w on said can's location but Aurora w promised to ring by 8.
Josh
 
It's on! Aurora just rang and my can is just arriving....or at a can which looks like mine has just arrived.
We each have to sign in at front officeunder my name, so let's all meet in car park out front at 10.30.
I've got pastries, doughnuts, juice, etc
 
Too bad i am Mormonia...

:(

Did you expect any differently when you decided to move to Utah? Isn't the Miller family members of the LDS church too? Not bad folks, have a few of them as friends, just very conservative.
 
I now have an entire garage full of boxes, an LX with south Australian plates in my driveway and bubble-wrapped furniture everywhere.
Thank you to one and all for all your help. Thank you Dan, thank you Ali, thank you Janet, thank you Lynn, thank you Rob, thank you Barry, thank you Jack, thank you David, thank you Brenon. I could not have done it without you guys and I am incredibly grateful. You guys actually made the whole thing enjoyable.
Once Emma and Liam arrive, we will have a dinner party here at the house for all those who helped.it is a token way to say thank you, but it will be a great excuse to catch up without having to move 200 lbs of furniture around.
Of course you all know that I am here if you ever need a hand.

Nice work team.

Wanna come and help with my approximately 60 40' Hapag-Lloyd containers?

:)

Depends. Can I bring home an 850 lb memento?

The pleasure is mine Josh. I'm not even all that sore today!

I took some random pics of the event. Overall, it went as smoothly as possible. The crazy dude brought over an Italian made push mower to hand on the mantle. Those Aussies are a strange breed....:flipoff2:

All done. Too many axle housings to fit inside the box truck so Janet took them home in the Taco. Crazy half Aussie/U.S. half breed on top of the pile of axles :D

Well I am now. I got the garage empty! Now it is officially a two cruiser, one motorbike garage and no longer a storage shed.... Now our house looks like a storage shed, but never mind. Getting there one 50 lb box at a time :-)
You guys are champs.
Josh
 
Great photos Ali, thanks.
You laugh at my mower now but we'll see who has the last laugh when petrol hits $10 per gallon and my grass is still getting cut once every week :-) you'll be over here begging to use my imported pushie... And I'll make you ask in Australian :-)

Incorrect. I'll be laughing because you have grass to mow. Know how much maintenance forest duff requires? :grinpimp:

Dan
 
Sure. If you don't mind a bit of forest fire fuel a stone's throw from your front door, none :-) if I had a push chain saw I'd lend it to you.
 
wait a MINUTE, does Josh even have grass to mow?

I don't know. But maybe those fancy italian mowers can cut the gravel walkway? That would be something worth carting halfway around the world...
