Where are you building in Gilchrist? We also have a spreadsheet of neighborhood info that is maintained by the inestimable A-4 Skyhawk. If you want to get in on this please send him a message with your info.

There's plenty of info on here about the design process and I know that anyone would be more than willing to help.

The Mayor
Thanks Everyone!
We are building on lot 211-22, and yes we are excited!
I will send A-4 our info. We have been Floridians for the past 19 yrs so we are well equipped for the environment, having lived lived in the Tampa area.
I realize we will not be on your side of the neighborhood, but we will do our best to keep Gilchrist proud.( I'll be standing by for the announcement of any get togethers.)
Until then,
I'll be checking the threads!!
Doreen

Default La Casa de Pane

Well, we have all been encouraged to post pix of the build! But OMG, after the last post, and we appreciate you Janice, I am not sure I want to follow with just a pix!!! You guys are scaring me to death ... once we move there what is the fill up schedule on the welcome wagon, and do we know ahead of time our turn, are there really old people on the street?
Anyway here is the newest on la casa ...we are counting the days ....31.....or 30 and 3.5 hours!!
BTW - great time at EP Friday night, so glad our timing was the same as your's for the Gillybration.

I hope we can talk some younger people into moving / switching into Gilchrist. We need someone who can pedal the Gillywagon. We all can't be drivers or bartenders. And I'm pleased to hear that you're looking for sheet metal for my ride. I've flown a fabric covered balsa wood beauty before and never got real comfortable with it. You shouldn't have to keep saying "I hope these dang wings stay on"

Dear West Virginia Redneck Girl -
Let me respond for the poor dude in the cart flying his colors. He says that someone in a "Huge Sherman Ford" SUV took a bead on the rear end of his cart and to save his life he took flight. His cart, with after-burners, was more than the chasers could handle, burning the paint off the front end of the monster. He says he can handle any "muscle" you throw at him and says "tomorrow night . . . at sun down . . . at the corner of Kilgore and Bradshaw . . . ." Bring help with you.
(I hope Community Watch isn't monitoring this thread )

Visualize this . . . . 2 laptops being held up in the air on their side. I hope the neighbors don't see this.

You will absolutely love it here and everyone is upbeat, up for a laugh and full of fun.

Now we have solved the midnight Bigfoot mystery, the neaighbourhood has calmed down a bit.

Look forward to seeing you around the 10th and if His Worship the Mayor doesn't declare another Gillybration soon, we will be very surprised. : crap2:
Thanks Andy for the compliments...we have said our peace, and now we are going to go on happy as clams (or maybe we should say Crayfish and blue crabs !!!). We are ready for another party in which we may have a tad more energy than when we were going through our design process...

Sincerely, Marcy and Bruce , pug lovers and spicy cajuns

Not sure how it happened, as we were not given an adequate explanation. It was strange.
