I was up at around 7:30 chaining up the dogs and was able to spot the movers as they were approaching the house. I waved them in (luckily, the dogs didn’t try running out–they were too scared) and they are currently in the process of packing up the furniture. After that, they bind up the boxes, and off in the truck everything goes. This is a pretty light move, so they should be done by around 10 AM.

If you are looking for movers to/from PR, take a look at Pan American Latino Express movers. They were the people who moved Evelyn’s parents (and us) down here, and they are moving our stuff back. They have always been on-time and the crews are friendly. (The same crew that moved us in is moving us out!) It cost about $5500 to move an entire house (lots of stuff) from Chicago to PR. It’s costing about $1800 for us to ship our 40 boxes, 2 bikes, 2 ladders, couch, and mini fridge back to Chicago. Not too bad for a trip of over 2000 miles, and cheap compared to the value of my cooking equipment and the bikes.

Update: Well it’s 10:15 AM and the movers are all done and out the door. In about a month we’ll have all of our stuff back in Chicago.
