Todd and Deb,

Cool House,, great garage space !!!  5 doors,,,, awesome....

Make sure you get a first option to purchase, or some sort of lease purchase down the road.  I know you are glad to be in the house now, but as soon as you can do everything to secure the right to purchase when you and the seller are ready.

Enjoy the new place,

See you in April

Man-o-man, that house is so big that the weather in front is different from what's on the side (by the garage).  Do you live part in the far north, part in the sub-tropics?

Nice house -- gotta find an excuse to visit you.  For that matter, though, you still oughta come up and visit us.

Big snow drifts Jon, you know about that don't you?  :-D

Yeah, a visit is still on the radar. I may have to send Todd while I stay home & finish the books for taxes. I'm a bit behind this year!  :-(

Nice house.  However, if you're anything like me, within a year it will be overflowing with "stuff".  :mrgreen:

Mike

I hear ya! The rec room with the tables & TV & all was completely empty when we started. In just a few weeks we managed to acquire all the stuff to fill it! Craigslist, Christmas upgrades & friends leftovers served us well!  :cheers:

Luckily the whole top of the attached garage is a walk up attic! We've got it about half full and about half of that will slowly be widdled down & trashed as I have time to weed through it.

There is actually some room in the shop for customers bikes now.  :) 

You should have seen the move. 

Here is a picture of Deb in the back of my truck on moving day.



HAHAHAHA! Major thanks to Joel & the boys!!!! They are super hard workers and I don't know how we would have gotten the move done without them!!

Welcome back kids, glad to see you are alive and well, and living in new digs.  Tell Todd not to wade that deep into the snow, love his red coat.  :roll:
What, you didn't like my red hat?  :evil:

Great little Roadster, Linda has a dark grey one, 3.0 and stick.  Only drives it when she can put the top down and the music up.  Little thing drives like its on rails...
Love the new house, nice garages.....
See ya on the salt  8-)
Sweet! She must have a fun daily driver too?
This is now my daily driver so the fact that it's the 2.5 & the auto with Sport & manual option works just fine for me. The 2.5 gives me "better" gas mileage and will hopefully keep my leadfoot from getting me in too much trouble! The manual shift give me the option to slam it down a gear if need be so I'm cool with that.  I just love the fact that you don't need to use the brakes unless there's an actual reason to stop! It just hugs the corners & keeps on going! FUN!!! Can't wait for warm weather so I can go topless!!! This is definitely the next best thing to 2 wheels!  :evil:
Looking forward to the salt!  :-)

There's a law in VA that they are required to give us, as the current renters, first option to buy.  :cheers:  The house is fully paid off and has sat empty for a few years so you can say they're not in a rush to sell. The lady that owns it I think is in her 90's. We deal with her son who is also a contractor, the husband/father is deceased. The son/owner have a "long term" plan of yearly upgrades, for the tax benefits, so we'll ride it out a little while and see what we think of the place while we allow him to do some home improvements. The first of which is replacing the heat pump/air in the next few weeks. As far as I know it's still the original 1970's unit. We're working well with the son and the owner seems pleased that we're happy with the retro feel of the house and not wanting major changes. So far its a win win so we'll ride it out & see how it goes. If we decide we'd like permanency I feel confident we can approach them about a purchase or rent to own option. For now we're loving it hope we don't have to move anytime soon. (moving stinks & we have to wait until everyone forgets how much it stinks before we do it again! hahahaha)

Thanks everyone for the congrats & well wishes!
