... and we got too much CRAP!
:o) ... Where 'n hell'd it come from? We whittled this junk down hard three years back... cut some more out since...and it's STILL too dang much!
Started out the day finding out that the Eagle just wasn't gonna fit through the hole we needed to pull it through to get to where we'd planned on setting up for a bit...
We actually might have gotten it in... with some considerable gymnastics... but... soon realized, it'd need a heavy lift helicopter or a Crane ta git it back out again! :o)
... so... we hauled back out and we're set up at another friends place... 'bout 6 miles east of the old place... till we figure out what we'll do longer term, while we get organized.
Was a day of Thumps and Bumps... took a header on the ice, while we were still lookin' at gettin' the rig set... jumping back and forth trying to watch both sides while James drove... zzzzzzzpppp! SPLAT! ... my butt tried breakin' the ice in the drive... and didn't succeed...
Then... later on, Terry came over to help Heidi and me try to get stuff and boxes moved... We were luggin' my heavy ... maybe 250 lb layout/cutting table out to the U-Haul to deliver as a B-day present... and... something slipped... not sure which end started fallin' first... but...
The dang thing whacked my knee... making my hide leak... but the most interesting part was that it kinda spun me like one of those OH-Lympic Arialist fellas... Hit my knee so hard it started me spinnin'... at least until my chin hit it! :o) ... my what purty stars!
Spent the rest of the day luggin' the boxes gimpin' an' whinin'...
Good thing Terry Volunteered... 'thout her helpin' we'd be a whole lot farther behind than we are...
But now... I'm bound for bed... plumb tuckered out...
Our First night back in the Eagle... already spent our lil' time settin' on the "Love Seat"...
Oh yeah... it's gonna be Fine!
Heidi and I agree... we're awful happy... but we'll be happier just as soon as we get done ... turnin' over the house to the new owner!...
Hopin' to have the swampin' out done tomorrow... though likely it'll overrun on into Sunday...
That's Life in the West!
Take Good Care
Brian

Well I must say you have had an interesting first day. Be careful on that ice, pardner, you could break something that would put you flat on your back in the Eagle instead of heading down that road. Don't think riding a motorcycle is something you can do in a full body cast. Although with your "congitatin" you could figure out how to do it.
Glad you like the little couch and it is working out great for you and Heidi. Pics when you can please. Bet when you get up in the morning, you are gonna feel that little bit of ice picking your tailbone did and oh Lordie the knee. Ouch!!!
Having just now read yesterday's post I realize the meaning of the text msg. I received. Not having my glasses on to read the fine print, I thought it was from my son... how can he sell his house when he lives in an apartment? So I call him and ask if he's being cryptic, or gone nuts! He thinks I've gone nuts cause he doesn't know what the heck I'm talking about..... :))
Anyway, Now I get it...
CONGRATS COWBOW, I'm lovin seeing you inch closer to freedom... come rescue me when you get there, please.
BCB
