Thats great. Another fun one to do, at least in Michigan, during the winter when it is about 10 degrees outside, wait fpr everyone to fall asleep and roll all the windows down and lock them so no one can get them back up....lots of yelling followed by laughter.

Oh Yeah! Today is the day! Congrats! You finally made it after a long journey and process!

After you settle and get moved in, I'll be ready to take you up on that beer you owe me, maybe when we're out fishing. It will probably have to be around October though.

We are coming from Benton Hardbor, Mi. Right on lake michigan about 30 miles north of the state line. Right across the lake from Chicago. We are staying in South Venice for a couple weeks to look around for a house, then I figure we will be anywhere between North Port and Sarasota. Doing a little work for family for a couple more days so now we are leaving on sunday instead of wednesday. I've waited this long, i guess a few more days won't hurt.

In then the frolicking around in the fiberglass insulation was a bowl of cherries as well. Ah, it was all worth it in the long run. We'll sit back and laugh about it all!

Anyway, I think congratulations are in order. I think you got a nice place in a great location! Now get yourself over there and moved in already
