BY THE NUMBERS: Moving style

So in the spirit of Island Packet and Beaufort Gazette style, I think my move back to North Carolina can be summed up in a "BY THE NUMBERS" box, which is a graphic element the paper uses to pull out important numbers from a story.

BY THE NUMBERS

7
Hours it took to drive a 4.5-hour drive with the truck back to Raleigh

8
Total family members, including me, it took to move

9
Total hours it took just to load and unload the truck

16
Total hours from beginning to end that the move took, including drive time (8 a.m.-midnight)

10 x 20
Size in feet of my storage unit, which we filled to the door

26
Length in feet of my moving truck (and yes, we filled the entire thing to the door)


I'm so grateful to my parents, David, Nicole, my future father-in law, Uncle Rich and Cousin Bryant for helping me! I love you guys, and you all really came through for me. I cannot thank you enough for helping me!
