The house is sold!!!!!!! 
We are officially full time RV'ers. Guy paid cash and we had 10 days to be out.
But 1 question......WHERE DID ALL THE sh*t COME FROM!!!!!
I figured I could be all out in 3 days....WRONG. 10 days and just finishing.... And its been like 90+ here every day. I think I've sweat 20 gallons this week alone.
Anyways, internet goes off tonight so I'll be on when I have service.
If any of you guys see a motorhome pulling in your driveway......were just visiting.....

Congrats on your new gypsy status! Hope the price of gas doesn't crimp your style too much...

Oh man. When we moved into our house, we bribed some friends with pizza & beer to help us. We rented a 39' truck, figuring we should be able to get it all in that monster. And we did -- by loading it chock-full TWICE. Oy vey.
And that was almost 20 years and two kids ago. We have way Way WAY more sh*t now. The "if I ever have to move I'm just gonna burn the place down" option has seriously come to mind a few times. For damnsure the next time I move, I pay somebody ELSE to haul all this crap. I'm too old for hoisting refrigerators and schlepping sofas.

Gary, sounds like you should have bribed them with bagels and a shmear of lox.
Before anyone gets up in arms my Grandfather was a Mohel. Preemptive info.

You've heard of the Mohel who was a collecting freak, and he saved the, ahh, "results" of his work? At the end of his career he had an entire drawer full of foreskins, and he wanted a momento of his life as a Mohel. So he took it to an expert leatherworker and told him to make something with them.
A month later he goes back and the leatherworker hands him a small wallet.
"That's ALL!?" cried the Mohel. "That's all you could make out of that whole drawer full?"
"Yeah, it's small," said the leatherworker. "But if you stroke it, it turns into a suitcase!"

Gypsies....maybe, hoodlums probably... Gas seems to be holding right now, but its not like we will be on the road constantly. We want to pick somewhere, go there and stay for a few months and see the sites in the area. Picked up a car dolly today and an Olds intrigue thats suppose to get around 30 some MPG. We'll drag that around with us for the site seeing...

How ironic; you're going north, and I'm going South to Myrtle Beach in a few weeks.
Let me know when you are going to be in the north VA area.

How do you put a home theater let alone a CRT PJ in one of those?!?!?!?
I would never want to do that, but more power to you and congrats.

Thanks.... Yea, no projector but I mounted an LCD flat panel from the ceiling, hooked in into the RV's sound system, gets OTA HD and connected a PC to it. So far so good.

Better keep your eye out on the weather. Hurricane season....
I'm still working on the plans for Oct. 17th...... 
Do you have your plans made out for Myrtle Beach? Know where the sites are? I know that area like the back of my hand if you need locations or directions for stuff.

You know, I've been thinking about coming up and checking out your shop. but cold weather is coming soon and I hate cold weather. We're thinking about Texas for this winter. Maybe in the spring or summer...

No we're on the north shore of Lake Ontario. We get the milder weather ( moderated by our location and the lake ). It's Buffalo NY that get's the 9-12 feet of snow. Them and Quebec.
