Packing up

Almost as soon as Julie was on her flight back to the UK, we started the mammoth task of packing up our apartment, selling everything off and set ourselves for the big exit. I was able to sell most of the big ticket items to our Canadian friends. The bulk of the remainder went like hotcakes once I posted them on the "Buy/Sell Misc" on the intranet at work. I was almost tempted to steal stuff off the neighbours and sell it off as well. I haven't quite finished offloading it. Maybe tomorrow.
I have two days left at work and then no work for about two months! This weekend we have a four day trip down to Waterton National Park with a sneak across the border to Glacier National Park in Montana thrown in. At the end of next week, we're off to South America for 6 weeks. After the sortie' across the equator, we're back in Calgary for three nights to pick up our stuff and close out a few things before the 30 hr flight back to Perth.
