This September 1, 2017 moving day will never be remembered as a "day that will live in Infamy" as FDR coined Pearl Harbor Day on December 7, 1941, but to us and our family, it will be long remembered. As "Director of Moving", Carolyn was down early after breakfast and took the Moving Crew on tour when they arrived to show them what was to be taken up to Brookdale. The 3 strong, young men loaded things without incident and took them up where Carolyn and Julie had the Patio door open to bring them in. Elaine and I gathered up a few things and went a bit later. When we got there, they suggested we just spend some time out it the vestibule, which we did.
Elaine just couldn't wait so about 11:00am we stuck our heads in the door to see that much of the stuff was already in place. We went to eat a very good dinner in the Dining Room and the girls enjoyed a sack lunch that Ben had brought to them. By the time we finished dinner and put away a few things, I was able to take my nap. Ben helped put up more pictures and the girls continued to get stuff put away. We had supper with long-time friends; went back down and picked up a few more things, and are all set to spend the night here after watching the Royals go out ahead of the Twins.
