Push Me, Pullman

During early contemplation of our 1,828 mile move Westward we realized a daunting problem. We had to do something with 7 years worth of accumulated crap. At first we thought maybe, just maybe, hiring a moving company, or even just a truck, would be anywhere in the realm of reasonable, but no. We quickly decided our best option was to give back, give away, sell and store about 50% of our stuff, including most of our major furniture items. The bed, couch, desk, pictures, drawers, and shelves all gone with the hope of finding suitable replacements once we arrive. Some friends who are moving to Portland, OR have offered to take and store a few items with their U-haul in exchange for our couch. The rest will be crammed into the the Corolla; along with Amanda, Cringer and Ramona ; and the Caravan, along with myself and two sugar gliders. It'll be interesting to say the least.

In planning the route we tried to evenly distribute the mileage, while allowing for time to visit certain points of interest along the way. Day 1 will be a short sprint to the hotel due to the undoubtable last hoorah the night before.

How many states will the van make it acrossed? Will Cringer piss his carrier every day?? These answers and more next week??? Make your guesses now in the comments.
