I...Rachel, I'm an old pro at driving U-Hauls... I can really put them through their paces. I think I've moved cross-country (e-w & n-s) at least 7 times in a rental van. You just have to pay attention and show 'em who's boss. Hmmmmmm... I see a topic for a future blog.<br /><br />There are a few companies that will do the door-to-door household goods moving... too bad we don't have a door in the middle of nowhere for them to deliver to LOL! No one comes down the Elliott Hwy except a few big rigs (expensive!!). Of course, we'll be renting a storage room in Fairbanks to keep everything safe until the cabin is built and we can tote stuff a trip at a time in the Dodge... now that G-man realizes it can handle much more load than he thought it could ROFL!<br /><br />Some people were born to trucks, other people have to suffer and earn :DPlickety Cathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02252583762292412093noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8433191378230739758.post-63665469990000178932009-07-23T11:37:52.438-08:002009-07-23T11:37:52.438-08:00Oh what an adventure you must be having!

I have heard about so many accidents with them recently. I wish that I warned you before you left. If you have ANY other trouble, and I mean ANY, call one of those pods moving companies. <a href="http://www.doortodoor.com" rel="nofollow">Door to Door</a> and PODS are just two of the companies that could save the day in the event of another accident.<br />Please keep driving safe!Rachelhttp://www.doortodoor.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8433191378230739758.post-75677429202687965792009-07-22T13:11:22.680-08:002009-07-22T13:11:22.680-08:00I have a Tig Welder!!!I have a Tig Welder!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8433191378230739758.post-11705040617680675962009-07-22T11:28:07.618-08:002009-07-22T11:28:07.618-08:00Wow! You two are having quite the adventure and yo...Wow! You two are having quite the adventure and you haven't even arrived yet!<br /><br />I'm glad I missed the cat experience that you so vividly described (Gee - thanks, I think?).<br /><br />Sounds like Murphy's Law is managing to dog you guys a bit but St. Christoper is fighting back. LOL!<br /><br />Best wishes, you guys. I'm rooting for you and look forward to hearing more. Thanks for keeping us all updated!<br />--<br /> Sam....Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
