Packing up Wagon Wheel.

Ann and I have been packing up Wagon Wheel since January.  She has collected so many boxes for us over the last 7 months and it's turned out to be a life saver.  It's shocking when you realize just how many you really need.  Since we are finally down to the wire and it looks like this might be our moving month after all, I have really kicked it into gear and have been a packing machine.

Chris keeps asking me if this is my way of telling him to hurry up.  And to that I say...YUP.

We are down to paper plates and plastic cups.  Nails on the wall and holes to cover up.  Almost everything has a new home in a cardboard box except for the large items, of course.  We are hoping to get in after our vacation at the end of this month.  Do I sound like a broken record yet?  Hey, I'm just the messenger.

What's left at Project 57?
     - Interior Paint (end of this week)
     - Wood floors & baseboards (last step)
     - Finishing touches on tile (we had to order more - end of this week)
     - Exterior paint & brick (in the next couple of weeks)

We decided we will move in as soon as the interior is complete.  No need waiting for the landscaping to be completed.  It will follow soon after the final house steps.

So we are closing up shop on dear Wagon Wheel and preparing for our next chapter a bit east.  Updates to follow...

Back in January.
Look how little Aves was!
Chris getting side tracked ;)
Cramming it all in!
Boxes galore.
Has the Grinch been here?
Chain link fence is down and the dirt has been graded.  We decided to keep the port-a-potty ;)
