Within the last couple of weeks, our daughter moved from Falls Church, VA, just outside of DC, to Omaha. LaVista, actually, a suburb on the south edge of Omaha.
My wife flew to DC and spent a week helping Amy pack the dishes and smaller things. My wife then flew home with Amy's cat in a carrier between her feet on the plane. A moving company then packed and moved all of her stuff. Amy then drove her car back, with stops in Lexington, KY and Independence, MO. She went to LA Vista first and finalized her apartment then came out here and stayed with us until the movers arrived.
A week ago this morning, the movers arrived with her stuff, and we all met at her apartment. We got her unloaded and she got enough unpacked and arranged to stay overnight. She started her new job on Tuesday.
She's still working as a paralegal with a real estate title company, but this company is growing where the company she worked for in McClean, VA was kind of stagnating. And the company in Omaha is expanding into more commercial work, which is what Amy is more experienced in. She'd been talking around the edges for the last year or two about moving back to the Midwest, and everything fell into place. She even has mutual friends among management and her co-workers in Omaha, and her contacts and connections around DC will be a big plus for the company in Omaha.
When she went to DC ten years ago, she'd just graduated from college and loaded all her worldly possessions in her car. Coming back now, the moving company had an even 100 cartons.
For my own part, about all I did was deposit an extra $5,000 in her savings account in case she needed any of it for the move. We haven't settled up on that yet, but she said she'd give back what she didn't use and pay back what she did use over a period of time. I won't be too harsh of a lender.
Her car is a '13 Hyundai Veloster sporty coupe, and she took the southern route specifically so she could drive through the mountains. I guess she had a ball. She takes after her old man in that she appreciates a good performing, good handling car and isn't afraid to take it to its limits with out being reckless.
Didn't mean to ramble on, but logistically that was quite an operation.

Today's Featured Article - The Day Mom Drove the 8N - by Brian Browning. My Dad was wanting to put in a garden but couldn't operate the 8N and handle the old horse drawn plow he had found and rigged up to use with the tractor. Well, he decided to go get Mom out of the house and have her drive the tractor while he walked behind the plow. You got to understand that while my Mom is a hard worker who will always help whenever she can... she had never operated farm machinery before that day. Dad got her out there, explained how the clutch was the same as in our o
