After graduating from Ohio State, I moved out to Newport Beach, California for my first post-college job. The company arranged for help finding an apartment in the area, which includes 1.5 days of apartment-hunting, and generally getting used to the area.

My father & a friend helped me out by driving the bulk of my stuff out to California. The guide was happy to use her AAA of California membership to get a custom trip guide made. It wasn't as novel as the turntable, but it was very nice!

And of course, the first thing I did when I moved in was to go to a bookstore and buy the Thomas Guide covering Orange County.
