Moving day, part 1. My sisters came down to pick up a load of furniture that will find new life in Massachusetts. Lee officially handed over the ice scraper to Jenner - we certainly won't need that in Taiwan!

The house is now three-quarters empty. We're putting our living room furniture, the dining room table and some boxes of keepsakes into long term storage. That's part 2. We'll take to Taiwan two suitcases and a carry-on apiece. Lee says he'll lease me space in his suitcase if I need more room. More likely we'll be mailing a couple of boxes. One with my loom and possibly another for overflow. Okay, really for shoes.
