MOVING DAY

I was so excited...having lived in Nanson Street for 39 years. I expected to be emotional about leaving but was so looking forward to a NEW house. Settlement was at 11 ish and not long after that the removalists  arrived. Pete and I packed both cars with paintings and my quilts (to protect the paintings). While the guys (who were very friendly) loaded up the truck Pete made two trips to Alice Street and I began cleaning.

It was a hot day, 36 degrees but everyone was moving quickly and efficiently. Luckily the guys weren't working directly in the sun.

Alice Street...dining room

Family room... we had labelled every crate and piece of furniture and the removalists were placing everything in the correct rooms. 

While Pete went back to Nanson Street with the guys and the truck for the second load (yes two loads, we have too much stuff) I started unpacking the crates of kitchen ware.

What a beautiful sight on our first night at Alice Street. This is the view from our bedroom window...facing east.
