A place to share our adventures as we relocate from Phoenix, Arizona, USA to Santiago, Chile. Monday, July 8, 2013.

They were ruined in the flood, but with all the unbelievable 4th of July appliance sales, and the ability we had to get the contractor discount with the number of items being purchased, we decided to go ahead and get everything. We called a...
