Moving Day!!
Hello all,
After many months of hard work, sweat,worry, grief, anger, my new house is finally done. I feel a pride looking at it and knowing, I and my crews, designed and built her.
Anyway, I took a few things in a van rather then the trucks when we loaded up. First was my vintage guitars, second was my boxes full of tobacco filled mason jars, and pipes.There are some things you just won't trust to the moving vans and people who load them. Have a great weekend!
Regards,
Dave

I told my wife 24 years ago I'd never move again. We probably have 10 times the stuff to move now...I'd also move my pipes/tobacco in their own truck.

Thats an understatement ... but you definately made the right move taking the pipes yourself ... why take the chances that one of these gorillas might break the stem off one of your best friends!

on your new home. I have been a firm believer that if you want something done right you do it yourself.

All of my childhood was spent in the same house. At 17 I went off to see the world and for the next 25 plus years my family and I moved around the world like circus folks. The thrill is gone. If I never move again that would suit me just fine. With the price of gas, living closer to work would be nice but I really don't want it bad enough to endure the hassle of moving and besides, this is a nice quiet neighborhood and closer to work (Clearwater) is a very densely populated area with far more excitement than I prefer. Even with the cost of commuting, I think it is probably alot cheaper to live here anyway.
Congrats on the new house Dave, may you and yours enjoy a long and happy life there.

Congrats on the new house. Good move on taking your pi[pes yourself.I made the Fatal mistake of putting mine in storage with household items during a divorce, and loct them all. Never again.
