Went up to Orange County with my friends Mary and Sylvia to help Mary’s uncle move some of his belongings down here to San Diego. The day consisted of us driving up to Cypress, stopping first at a Starbucks to refuel ourselves before any heavy lifting, then stopping at a motorcycle shop/U-Haul rental business to pick up a 14-foot van, spending a couple of hours going through a lifetime of painstakingly organized memories, most from World War II (although finding a few Disneyland treasures that Mary said we could keep), loading only a few things into the U-Haul, having lunch at a Subway, me driving the U-Haul back down to San Diego, us unloading at the Paradise Valley assisted living facility after having met Rodrigo there to help us, fixing up the room for Mary’s uncle’s arrival tomorrow, and finishing up with a nice Chinese dinner at Mandarin-Canton in Chula Vista. A tiring but very productive day.
