Well we are here finally. The last day in Florida was very stressful but with the help of our daughter-in-law ( more like our daughter ) we made it. Thank God I made it through the trip without my problem.
We are still waiting for our furniture it is 10 days now but low and behold we have an ice storm in progress. So hopefully 2 more days and it should be here.
Larry misses his trips to the Legion and to Headleys to meet all his friends.
We are looking forward to setting up our apartment next week. The change has been a challenge but because we have such great children it makes it much easier.
Some things have to be and this is one of the. Will post more later.

Work on both sides has started. We had to select a moving company, car carrier, place adds for them to sell some of their furniture, as well as research stair lift chairs. It is amazing what can be done on the internet these days. Within minutes, I had quotes from moving companies and car transport companies. Of course the challenge is to find a good price with a professional and bonded service providers. Mission accomplished! The moving van will arrive on January 18th and the car transport company sometime before then. How did they do it in the olden days before the web?

Next Up - Stair Lift: After doing lots of research, I have found what appears to be a good, moderately priced stair lift. A local store had demos to look at and try out. They are very well built, quiet and stable. Should I order on-line and save a few dollars or purchase from our local store? I think a little more research is in order. They install easy, a project Bob and I can tackle for sure.
