Congratulations. My original plan when moving to Texas was to be in the Hill Country. Sounds like you found an awesome spot with all that water, and having Axis is a huge bonus. My wife shot three does down near Sonora a couple years ago while I was hunting free range blackbuck and sika. They where the best tasting steaks!!!!
When I moved from CA to TX, I rented the biggest UHaul with a trailer that they had and hauled everything I could fit on it, then flew back and did it again. On the third trip, I drove my truck, with a trailer, and my ex drove her car with her house plants in it. Overall, it was a huge pain trying to decide what to bring, and what to get rid of. After settling in and finally unloading everything from storage, I ended up throwing away about half of what I hauled here. It was overwhelming trying to decide what I would need when I had never lived here. If I ever do it again, I really think that I'll sell, give away, or donate to Goodwill, almost everything.
What happened is a lot of my stuff just didn't survive being in storage. The heat, moving stuff around, and then putting unopened boxes in my garage and having a leak that got the boxes all wet added to the problem. But I've never missed anything that I threw away, and what was really important to me, we treated differently then the stuff that I just couldn't decide on what to do with it when I was packing up and moving here.
In the end, it's just stuff.
