COUNTDOWN TO NYC : 4 Days !

Well as much as I look for more stuff to pack I think I pretty much have it all together. I have been surprisingly ahead of the game as far as that is concerned. Monday afternoon I pick up my U-Haul (from Budget rentals actually) and Friday afternoon I have to drop it off in New York. I will be in NYC by Thursday evening.

My departure time is still somewhat up in the air. Somewhere between really early Tuesday morning to mid morning on Wednesday. It is about 24 hours on the road not including breaks. If I drive solo I will leave on Tuesday and stop and go as long as I can last. If my travel buddy makes the trip then that gives us a little more leeway.

I have to break down the computer and pack it up soon. I may wait until Monday afternoon so that I can stay plugged in as long as possible. I should repost by then. If not, definitely when I get to the city. Friends and family will be updated by phone.

I am getting so excited about the trip. I am still sad that I am leaving so many friends but the corner has turned and I am looking forward more than looking back. As someone told me the other day if you can make it in New York City you can make it anywhere. Not very original but poignant all the same.
