Is in Hanover Ma.....so.....lots to do! If all goes well we move in in a month! :cool:

congratulations bigfish and fishchick.... you must be psyched.

i like banana boxes for moving because they're rated up to 40-60 pounds ,stackable with nice handles and best of all they are free @ local super markets.

Best of Luck :claps:

:laughs: I dunno Larry, sounds good, but,.. I think you will find, that you, (like me), are one of those "Pride in Ownership Guys", and will be doing your fair share of "fishing season" maintenance, and projects.. course sometimes I got my other half doing this: :lasso: :lasso: to "get r done"... like today.....

BigFish 07-31-2005 08:51 AM

Karl....its kids that rob you of fishing time, and mine are big boys now.....the house can be worked on all winter inside and the outside only needs shingles so they can be done in Spring......don't worry all you fish hogs......I will be out there geting all the schoolies I can muster up. :laughs: The house needs alot of interior updating, which is no sweat....looking forward to it!

:lasso: <Fishchick

Karl F 07-31-2005 08:56 AM

Larry, got a son 19 and a daughter 14, good kids, love 'em, but, keeps me from fishing more now, than when they were younger... gotta stay heavily involved in them teen age years, nowadays...... teenagers will ruin ya, one way or the other ;)

BigFish 07-31-2005 09:00 AM

If I don't breath.....I die! If I don't Eat....I die! If I don't fish.....I will be one miserable bastard! :laughs:

Flaptail 07-31-2005 09:42 AM

When do the plugs go on sale?

BigFish 07-31-2005 09:48 AM

MMMmmmmmmmm......never! :rude:

Raven 07-31-2005 11:24 AM

hey larry
 
think: :think: concrete slab for the shop.... and once you have the building permit

you can throw a S-B BBQ "shop building party" and get it all done in a single

weekend instead of bit by bit in between fishin and work ...or next year.

then you'll have a better place to do all of your plug painting instead of in the

cellar. hmmm ..... just an Idea.... big guy.


more power to ya.....
