I think you should start a new thread every time you stop for gas or food.

 

[Nerd-Vol]

Be careful. Safe travels!

Hope they lack cell reception and wifi.
You buying a house or living on base?

Canada won't have much coverage. On base is the plan as of right now.

It is still being considered

 

[Wickerhead]

Thanks. Haven't seen you in awhile.

Been pretty busy with work and all the holiday stuff.

 

[Toujours Pret]

Have a safe trip, hope the weather is cooperative

Wanted to leave by 1pm at the latest. Doesn't look like we're making that time hack

How many days till you get there?
12 day trip?

 

[YankeeVol]

The Army says 12 days. I think we'll make it in 8-10.

We will now be leaving(for sure) tomorrow morning at 0400.

Have a safe trip - I am planning on asking every day if you are there yet... just so you know

Officially began yesterday. Rented a 26' U-Haul. Ended up having to rent a 5'x8' trailer to tow behind the Tacoma.

I'm authorized 11,000 lbs. for household goods. We came in at 10,640.

We will be leaving Savannah tomorrow. I'll post pics along the way. We're headed thru Atlanta, Nashville, St. Louis, and Kansas City. Then along the Nebraska, Iowa border into South Dakota. From there we'll be onto Wyoming and then crossing into Canada via Montana. All told, it should end up being 4,802 miles.


All with 2 dogs and a 17 month old. This will be one hell of an interesting trip.

why didn't you let them move you

Mileage plus expenses?

Mileage plus expenses?

Doing a full PPM(personally procured move). They pay me to move my own stuff. Travel is separate.

 

[YankeeVol]

On the road!
