The Big Reveal

The movers were here today and they worked their bottoms off. They had a hot day and hardly stopped for lunch. I think they went through about 8 litres of Gatorade. The driver along with three local guys managed to unload everything in about 7 hours. I started unpacking tonight and got the basics set-up. I have to say the driver was amazing. He was positive and helpful and very much ran the show. He is from Ontario and spends most of his time driving around North America. I couldn't believe how they managed to pack the stuff into the truck. So far there have only been two things that were broken. One is the dinning room table (it's minor and can be fixed), the other is one of the sofas we had reupholstered (that might need a little more attention). Jane, and Isabelle, and Taryn, and Maggie are on their way. The gang is pushing through a big day. That's a whole lot of states having started in Pennsylvania this morning. In the end they'll have about 800 km behind them when they arrive. They just called from the state line and should be here just before dark.
