Time to move again!!

[lonestarmedic]

Well, this time it is actually a good thing. MochaLady and I found a place to hang our helmets. We are heading for Floresville, Texas. Or more precisely about 10 miles north of there 1/2 way from San Antonio. We picked up 5 acres with a 2500 SF home. It is a double wide set on a permanent foundation. We have 4 bedrooms, 3 bahrooms, 2 living rooms, and a study. Momma gets a small greenhouse and I get a garage. So, all the missed rides, meets n eats, and other things are now worth it. I have been working 6-7 days a week all year and Maggie has been working double 16 hr days on the weekends and a day or two in the week.

 

Now the better news, after we move, Maggie will go back to working during the week and not on weekends. I will actually do the same. Might even take some vacation soon. Heck, a friend of ours even gave us an old Honda CB400. Maggie wants me to fix it so she can learn to ride her own scoot.

 

Soon, we will have a bit of a housewarming (after Christmas) and invite our friends over to share some hospitality.

 

We have even named the place FUGAWEE ACRES! It is far enough out of town to stand in the middle of our back field and shout "Where the Fugawee!"

 

We close on the 10th of November - in 2009.

Congrat's guess you can start having a MD at your place soon. Glad you got a great place for the two of you to hang your helmets at. Enjoy your new digs.

Give us a shout and we'll come over and help you brea...I mean unload things in the new digs

[lonestarmedic]

Not saying we are eager to go but is it considered bad form to drive the moving truck to the closing and signing

 

Should have lots of room to store 1st Gen parts. I have 2 commercial pallet racks ready to put up and 3 large cabinets with shelves.

 

Thanks for the offer of help. We might need some assistance setting up shop. I think the move part will be easy. The hard part is usually building benches, shelves and wiring etc. I will need to trench for larger lines. I am getting a 2nd meter put in for the shop and other stuff. I figure 100 amps at 220vac should hold the shop. First, momma wants a nice woodburner in the living room. It will need to be U.L. listed and installed to code with double wall stainless pipe. She wants nice glass doors and a blower system.

 

Yes, when the shop is ready, we plan on hosting many weekend get togethers. Should be able to stack a bunch of Venture folks in. We will put up a porch on the back. Planning about 65ft long and 12ft wide.

 

Thanks for the good wishes

Just either park the truck where they can't see it or where they can't see you get out. Otherwise what the heck.

Nice digs guys, but the BBQ (at side of garage) needs to be upgraded to a larger size to feed all the VR people planning to come over and help / eat.

[BuddyRich]

Looks Good, Glad you found a place, We'll have to come out and help get some oil on the floor in the garage..

[lonestarmedic]

Annie-

That grill is a leftover from the non-entertaining former owner!

 

Buddy -

Just need to do an oil change and forget to put a drain plug back in.
