Too Much Junk
Well the move has been made!! Except for the rest of my family who is in Canyon Lake until our other car gets fixed. I miss my wife and son! 
Thank you so much to everyone who helped load in Cerritos and unload in Soquel. You all rock! And as noted by the title of the post, I discovered in this move that we have way too much junk or somethin!
There’s the back of our 17 ft truck we stuffed full. According to the website, this truck is supposed to fit Apt./Up to 2 rooms. "We’re moving into a fairly small 2BR house," I thought to myself. Surely this truck would be able to fit it all. Besides, the next size up was pretty much double the price.
Boy was I wrong. We packed stuff into every nook and cranny on that truck and were left at the end with a handful of stuff with nowhere to go. And when you’re move is a 6+ hours drive, there is no "I’ll come back for it on the second trip."
So, it was either unload the entire truck, take time to find a bigger truck and trade it in, and then reload a new truck, throw away a whole bunch of stuff, or…
…add another 12 ft to the 17 ft truck. And so we ran out (with the help of Bart Boulton…THANKS!) to pick up a trailer to throw on the back of truck.
After a great day cruisin up to SC with my brother-in-law, Tim, we had like 15 people from CLC meet us at the house and had the whole thing unpacked in 30 minutes…woohoo! So I have now made a dent in the unpacking and hopefully my wife will be here soon to join me in the daunting task!
