Not yet, it's still up in Canada.

Allegedly it's one of 38. Don't know, and don't care, it's a four speed, and a '66 Dodge, and it's mine!
 
And she flipped like a light switch. She did me a favor, she's got some serious issues to deal with.
I almost said that was a red flag when she brought the family with her, but I thought you would figure it out.

Big John's dating advice.... First, never date at work. I saw too many relationships go south and still have to deal with each other at work.
Second, don't look too hard and have some fun. When I was between wives, I had a pretty good time, but waited until I found the right one (the present Mrs. Big John) before I got serious. Don't rush into anything else.

The family thing was a good sign, it was afterwards that she changed.

I'm going to focus on me, my cars, the house and my guns.

Oh wow that's really interesting, I look forward to more info and pics when you get it in your possession!
 
Here's some pictures of the house, started moving in, I'll fix it as I go, plastic sheets will keep the mess to a minimum.

Do you have any history regarding the house, property And people that lived there? If the walls could talk...
Just a little. The abstract has all the names of who owned it. Records go back to late 1800's.

Do you have any clean west coast sections of floors to bring this way? :lol:
Seriously though if you're taking I-80 through Illinois I'm about 15 minutes from the interstate if you'd like to rest a minute and chat.
Sorry Scott for the thread hijack

So, I found a bag with some ScanDisk memory cards in them, tool a chance and put them in my laptop. Got to see who my neighbors were talking about. And their dogs, they had a few. No weird pictures, but I got to see a little into their lives. And judging by the views on Google Earth, they were a messy bunch. No wonder the neighbors like me for not being them.
 
And some glorious news for me, the ex came up with more money than she had when I left, thinking her mom helped her, and she paid off the Jeep that is in both our names! $32k+ off my credit score! The last big bond, finally broken, thought I had to wait til next August. I just have to copy some pictures, and drop of the cop car wheels, and I'll be completely free, hell yeah!
