Dude, where's my stuff?

I drove out to San Fernando to visit the storage facility where I have three containers full of stuff. My mission was to retrieve snowboarding gear for next week's trip to Mammoth.


When I got there, the container I asked for was parked right by the dock. For a moment I thought I forgot the padlock key, but realized it with with my car keys. Whew.


The facilities are pretty impressive. A waterproof, climate-controlled maze of storage bins that recalls the last scene of Raiders of the Lost Ark. They must hear jokes about that every time a customer visits.


In addition to snowboard gear, I grabbed an extra pair of shoes to wear when it rains. It was hard to leave the rest behind...


Mission accomplished. If you have to stash your goods, I highly recommend SMARTBOX. After much research, I found their prices to be among the best. After visiting, I know that my stuff is in a good place, too.
