Even with the major move last week, there is still more stuff left than I can easily transport in my car so I rented a UHaul cargo van. Run from apartment to Vienna via Lee Highway and Gallows road to pick it up. 9:30 in the morning and already oppressively hot. Tired from packing and carrying all week and little sleep last night so very slow.
There is a little park on Gallows road and even though I have lived a few miles away for nearly 16 years, I have never visited it. Today I did as I saw a porta-john in the parking area as I went by and I needed a break. All I saw was a parking lot, paved trail leading to a playground and some woods. Did not explore any more, as I had to get moving to pick up the van.

Took off work for a full day of packing and moving. One of the things I liked about this apartment when I moved here was it had lots of storage space. As I move, I can see this is not always a good thing. Way to much stuff and no matter how much I move, there always seems to be more. Probably should have gotten a small truck instead of the van since I ended up making 3 trips. Milage cost on the trucks was higher though ($8 per round trip). 10ft truck would still have needed two trips and the total would have been about $5. 14ft truck could probably have done in in one trip and saved $6 but I would have had to load everything at once. Would have saved even more in time and gas cost.
Any way I lost track of how many trips from the apartment to the van so will just estimate at 30 per load. Most were not nearly as strenuous as loading the car had been since I carried less stuff and was parked a lot closer.
