I found a flight Saturday afternoon back to the city, so I took it. The sooner I went the better, as I would have more time to arrange everything.
The idea is to come back driving with the stuff I need the most, it will take me much longer (about eight to ten hours) but I'll need my car here anyway. I'm debating whether I should come and go or hire movers because for example, at the weekend of the gallery show I can bring more of my stuff with me.
Yes, it would take me several journeys to get all of my stuff here, but I could get the most important stuff first this weekend, and with it organize the studio a bit and start working. Once I have that, I can evaluate what else I might need to get when I go to the gallery show.
I'm guessing I'll still be missing some stuff after that, but it won't be that much and I can grab it any other time.
