I have decided that I will actually need to go to Vegas and find an appartment before my move. I had orginally thought that I could do it online or by phone. I finally realized that I won't be able to get a feel for the neighborhoods without going down. I will be fiying down and back the week of July 9. I was able to get a flight and hotel for under $400.
I have booked my moving van--its a u-pack semi-triler. I pack how much of the semi I need, they put up a locked partition wall and when I get to Vegas they bring the semi trailer out to my appartment and I unload it there. On this end I will bring my stuff to their Kent transfer station but on the other end they bring the trailer to my appartment complex. Neat. I was going to get a couple of those containers, but the company that I liked was out of containers the week that I am moving. I left it too late. OH well...no harm done. In fact, doing it this way saves me about $500 dollar--hey that's about what I need to spend to go appartment shopping in the first place...wierd how things work out.
I will be pacing up my appartment on Monday 7/30 and I will need help. I want to get the appartment packed in the u-haul van within 2 hours. Drive to Kent and pack the semi and be done with it. Anyone want to help?
I will be be at OLO this weekend. I am going to be brining some items that I am trying to sell. If you are interested in any of this stuff, let me know:
3-octave Celtic harp ($400 obo)
BBW clothes--including a black and silver silk corset ($200 OBO)
candles/holders and other dust-catchers
fabric, scarves, hats, etc.
books, CD, VCR & DVD's
stereo, lighted makeup mirror and a cute dressing-table lamp
Buffy & Angel dolls (in original packaging)
and other stuff that I haven't found yet (excavating storage unit on Friday)
If you are interested in anything, email me off list. Bring questions (and money) on Saturday. Anything I don't sell to you guys, goes onto Craig's list on Sunday.
