Amazing that it all (all that was left, that is) fit into that 14 foot U-Haul. Well, all but a few spillover items + Nancy, who rode in the lead vehicle. Turns out that the 14-footer was a wise choice, if just barely.
Los Angeles did it's best to remove second thoughts by keeping the temperature at or above 95 degrees most of the day. Charlie and Frank provided an incredible amount of help and it ended up taking less time and effort than I had guessed that it would.

Years of driving a Miata didn't adequately prepare me for navigating a U-Haul van out of L.A. then the winding, narrow roads of Marin County. Fortunately Charlie rode shotgun with me for the long drive up the 5.
Here's a last look at 1521 Oak Grove, just before we pulled out and headed north.
Arriving in Mill Valley after 7PM felt a little late to me, as the light was fading. My friend Del (stronger and harder working than any two people) met us there and the four of us managed to get the truck unloaded and into the house in just about an hour!

I was worried most about Nancy. Once we removed her last refuge (the bed, under which she hides) she wandered around in a semi daze looking for anywhere to hide.
However she handled the long, hot drive up the 5 extremely well and seems to be adjusting to her new surroundings much better than I expected.
Does this cat look like she's having difficulty "adjusting" to anything?
