Silicon Hillbillies

Moved youngest son John to Eugene this afternoon. Once we got the truck loaded I thought it was pretty fair imitation of the Beverly Hillbillies truck.

The Originals

We were lucky, there wasn't a cloud in the sky. John and some friends are renting a house, and they all decided to move today. We saw a small U-Haul van come flying by us on the drive down South, but didn't think much about it. A little later we pass Alex (one his friends) in a pickup.

We have the address to the house, but no one has bothered to look at a map. We luck out though and manage to drive directly to it, and who is sitting out front? One of his friends in the very same U-Haul van we saw earlier. Five minutes later Alex and his crew pulls up in the pickup. It's a two hour drive and our speeds were easily 5 MPH different, but all three of us managed to show up within a ten minute span. Okay, maybe it was 15 minutes. Barely long enough to stretch and get our bearings.

Everyone brought all the furniture they had been saving for this event. There might be too much. Some of it might end up out on the curb. Fortunately we didn't have to bring any home.
