Moving In – Hudson, NY

We went to Tanzey’s for breakfast. When we returned the moving truck was alrerady parked in front of the house. Right on time.

Soon enough the living room had furniture, not all in the right place, but enough to create a pause.

When all of the boxes and furniture were in the house, most of the rooms looked like this.

Moving Out Day – leaving Cambridge after 40 years….

The big moving truck pulled up this morning and by noon left with all of our possessions. The definitive end of our collective 40 year tenure in Cambridge.

I am still surprised by the ways flags are used. Maybe I am stuck in the 1960s when this would be described as “desecration” and in some quarters lead to a stay in the local lock up.

This tree in front of our old house at 52 Kinnaird was the size of a forearm and perhaps 15 feet tall when we first moved here in 1978. Now it towers over the house at probably 75 feet in height.¶

Some Are In Shock Over The Move

As I was stacking another box on the pile for Hudson, I came upon these guys in a plastic bucket.

Wait till I put on the lid!

Fortunately they don’t whimper too loudly.

More Evidence – beyond throw away phase to box-em up!!

Here is further evidence that preparations for the big truck arriving on the 24th are underway.
