I can't find it to take a pic of it so if Calc can get me a file I'll post it on the site. Calc's dad thought it would be funny for people like A-4 and myself who are a little bit country.

Don'tcha kinda think that jug with the XXX should say CORONA?

Jug-O-Corona? Works for me

We can join you walkies with our monster long hair Chihuahua, a 7 lb that has the mind of a Rottie.

We're headed north to cold Maryland in the morning and aren't too happy about leaving our new home in TV. Our holidays up yonder will be brightened by a new grandson due to arrive via our daughter, Erin, on Dec. 5 and having son Colin and his two young guys in from Seattle. Look for us back here in late Jan. Much thanks to Rusty and Janice for some wonderful conversations over good food and a nip or two.

Gillbillies!... Okay, I can see that! Call me Guy, wife is Dellie... We are trying to tie down our design date (that's the only thing left to settle)... We are soon to be S214 Gillbillies... Begonia is our choice...

Thanks to Calc's dad I've got a copy of the BillBilly crest for those of us that have one leg shorter than the other (don't ask...lol) and are south of the Mason-Dixon!!!

Zipady do da Zipady a, my my my what a wonderful day

Just logged on and seen the fabulous pictures that Rusty has posted of our house and our new friends, read the great news about more new neigbours with their new grandson arriving in Dec etc and read the news about Calc's house sale

Having to pinch ourselves to make sure we are not dreaming - ouch! (that was a hard pinch!!)

The GilBilly picture is fantastic and we must adopt it as our village emblem.

Millie says she is up for a doggie walking club, at least i think thats what she has just said.

Zipady do da Zipady a, my my my what a wonderful day

p.s. My singing is better in print, although it does improve after a glass or two.

See you all soon

So tell me . . . . was it the tent or the roast pig that gave me away?

Didn't quite get the $$ we wanted and could have probably done better if we pulled it off the market and re-listed it in the spring...but I just needed it to be SOLD so I could focus on becoming a GilBilly.

So it looks like we'll be adding another trip to Gilchrist MLK weekend in mid-January to finally take a look at our finished house (Ed might drive a truck with some of our stuff--I will fly because it's too hard for me to take time away from my AP Calc kids). Then we'll be back the last week in March during my spring break. And finally we should be permanent in June/July.

Congrats on the sale of your house and so jealous that you'll be permanent Gilley"s--still waiting for that perfect job to appear

Gosh gone for a few days and this thread is bursting with so much activity The houses look beautiful--and as always thanks for the pictures! And also congrats to everyone for their news of the last few days! Also all the info that was posted. This working full time is for the birds and trying to plan for the bird is also taking too much of my time--plus trying to find flights-post resumes--the list just goes on and on!

Boy packing sucks!!!!!!!

Been here 20 years, new tenants do the walk thru next Sat.

Trying to finish up with Fema on some minor "Sandy" damage, they don't call back........

We hit the road a week from today.
