My trolling motor pulls my boat along at 3 mph. No need for gas now!

Look at you going all electric… ha, ha!

My countdown is:

• We are taking possession of rental home today in preparation for our house of 30 years going on the market
• House goes on the market in early April
• Once house is under contract, we will completely vacate until closing.

At that point, we have NOTHING to do all weekend except play. After a year of getting the house ready for sale (from new roof, driveway, carpeting, flooring to seemingly endless painting and more recently, packing), we are really looking forward to it! The boat has not been wet for over a year!

Moving is NOT fun! Congrats on getting to this point! Are you having another house built?!?

Are you having another house built?!?

Yes, for retirement. Out in the countryside NW of Houston. Near Brenham TX. Hope to start construction soon - 14 month construction window.
