We closed on the Oak Bluffs house on September 14th. It was a lovely Monday morning when we travelled to the Vineyard for the closing. After a brief walk-through, we went to our lawyer's office for the closing. It is a bit unsettling to hand over a check for a such a large sum of money but in the end, it is going to be worth it!
We went back to the house to have lunch and spend more time taking inventory. We walked around the house, taking notes and measurements. It has many of the essential furnishing; i.e., couch, table, chairs, beds, dressers, dishes, etc. It did not have many glasses, no linens, pillows, etc.
When we returned home we went about going through our attic, basement, closets. We boxed and piled up our "extra items" in our garage. On Thursday, Trip Barnes of Barnes Moving stopped by the Marion house to pick up items to take back to the OB house for us. When Barry arrived on Friday, he was able to direct the movers where to put the items. That included taking our new bed (head and foot board) up the spiral staircase. That was a huge stroke of luck for us!
