Default Shawn & Freddie

Dropped by one of the newer construction sites on my way to the post box this evening and found that Shawn & Freddies foundation had been backfilled and it appears that it's ready for some rough-in plumbing.

Can't wait until the foundation goes in!!

Default The Yosts Journey Begins!

What progress has been made on this house which is just across the street from our patio on Kilgore. A lot of digging and rebar went on today and I would guess that concrete for the footers is not far away. Great progress for Mike Yost and his bride!!!

Thanks to the Mayor of Gilchrist, we joined the TOTV. Just returned home to Pittsburgh after 2 wonderful weeks in TV designing our new home on Kilgore Way across from Rusty & his wonderful family. (Hi to Janice, Sally & Gracie). We thoroughly enjoyed the Gillybration at EP on 5/10 and especially the opportunity to meet so many new neighbors. Construction of our home was to start today. Wondering if you are still willing to post pics??? And how do I find them??? We're new to this format so any help would be appreciated. We are trying to finish up the 36 year cleanout we've been working on the past year & still waiting for a buyer for our home here so we can move into Gilchrist later this summer.

Hi all,
We will be raising a glass tonight at 7:30pm (your time) 12:30am (our time) to you all, so we will be with you in spirit, if not in the flesh.

Really missing all you guys and TV.

We have been out buying bits and bobs of two sets of golf kit, shoes, gloves, tees, balls and another set of Golf Clubs each - its an expensive hobby this golf lark is, especially when you need two sets of everything!

At least over here in the UK, we dont have Gators swallowing our balls and can fish them out of the water with impunity!

Hectic 10-12 Weeks!
We finished the design meetings (4 full days) at the end of January, and we figured we would put our Atlanta home up for sale during late spring and be frogs by late summer. However, an email changed the plan. A couple was looking to buy in our neighborhood, and everything snowballed from there. We didn’t use a realtor and closed on the Atlanta house on March 29. We closed on our Gilchrist house (210.117) on April 11 and lived out of suitcases at Susie’s sister’s mountain home. Susie has been here since 4/18 and I came down 2 weeks ago after the semester ended. It has been very hectic, but the end result is what kept us going! Thanks to A4 Skyhawk for the mover recommendation…we shared the same 18 wheeler from Knoxville to TV.
We are looking forward to meeting our Gilly/TV neighbors and enjoying everything TV has to offer!

If anyone is up for dinner at Evans Prairie before the meeting, Carol, Mike Gayle and anyone else will be there at 5:30. We wont know how many since this was a last minute thing, but come and we will work it out. Hope to see you for dinner.
