Denver is about 1800 miles away. Although I would have thought that most of the cost would be in the labor and not in the additional 1000 miles.

[QUOTE=Our bedroom set alone (which my wife insisted on keeping) would cost more to replace than the entire move...[/QUOTE]

You either have a very expensive bedroom set or else got a great price on the move!!

I wish I had brought:

A few more sweatshirts and/or long sleeved shirts.
A favorite pillow, a particular brand of thermopedic that was the #1 most comfortable pillow I've ever had. Hubby thought I meant the /other/ pillow and packed that one instead. Heartbroken
A huge painting of a stylistic mermaid lounging on a dune, on a dark red background, painted by an artist friend of mine. We sold it at a tag sale. I should've kept it. I love that painting.

I wish I had left behind:
One of my guitars that I haven't used in 20 years and keep for sentimental reasons.
A couple dozen pairs of old socks that I replace with new ones every year and just never get around to discarding.
Some of the crappier framed prints that we've collected over the years.
