Day 1: Furtak's Leave Washington

Friends,

We decided to get on the road and leave Washington for Georgia two days early. This is the start of our cross country blog. I'm going to do my best to leave you a daily blog of our progress.

What amazed me most about going from west Washington in the Seattle area to east Washington in the Spokane area was how drastically the landscape changed once we cross the Cascades. The landscape went from lush evergreens mountains to dry trees less mountains. In a lot of ways, east Washington reminded me of California.

We spent the last month getting rid of 98% of what we own. In this trailer and the two cars is what we have left. There's something liberating about having our possessions down to this size. This is the first time that we've made a move without loading the largest size moving truck.

The U-Haul company were the ones that advised loading all the heavy stuff towards the hitch. What do you think?

Come back tomorrow for the next update.
