Fernley, by Way of Yuba City

I'll be working from Fernley for the next three weeks. Rather than head up yesterday afternoon, I'm leaving Fremont this afternoon, because I want to swing up to Yuba City and deliver Christmas gifts to my mother, sister, and nephew, and that adds several hours to what is already a six-hour drive in the best of circumstances. Fortunately for me (but not for the ski resorts and next year's water supply), the weather forecast is for clear and dry.

I have another van-load of boxes and small furniture to take to Fernley as well. Lisa and I have discussed maybe cleaning out the storage locker in Yuba City sometime this summer, if we can find a time window for it. Some stuff can be used to furnish Fernley House, while the rest can be moved to a storage location more convenient to the house, like walking distance. The reason I stored stuff in Yuba City originally was because I was living there at the time I needed to "temporarily" relocate to the Bay Area (that was in 1994!) and because storage is much cheaper in Yuba City than in the Bay Area.
