Today the movers packed-up my household goods for shipping to Korea. The packer seemed to think there was less than 500 pounds, but I think he’s probably off by about 300 pounds. He’s going to give me a call after it’s weighed and let me know. If the shipment is less than 500 pounds, the Air Force will transport by air; heavier stuff goes by sea. Naturally, the difference between the two (for me anyway) is the delivery date. By air, my stuff would probably be waiting for me when I get there mid-January; by sea, I more then likely won’t get it until mid-February.
On Wednesday, I’m driving my Jeep to the Vehicle Processing Center in Dallas for shipment to Korea. It’s about a 10-hour drive from here, but a pretty easy one. I plan on hitting the road about 3 a.m. That’ll put me in Dallas about 2 p.m. I figure an hour to do the paperwork for the shipment, then take a cab to the airport to catch a 6 p.m. flight back home.
My wife and daughter will be leaving for Alabama on Thursday. My daughter is here to close-out her bank account and disenroll from school. My wife is returning to Alabama with her to spend a few days with our granddaughter. Since I’ll be alone for a couple of days, Friday will be a good time to get my smallpox shot.
