Bought a House, been busy
 
I haven't been on much at all in the past month and a half because my wife and I just bought a House. We moved in March 30th and have been busy with it and normal life since. Haven't touched my rc's except to move them around since Mid March. I will try to post some pictures up later.

I will say it is darn nice being out of an apartment and in a quiet neighborhood. I grew up on acreage so the apartment gig was pure torture for me.

Just because I knew it was coming I did it first!

Congrats man! Your life will never be the same. Even with a new house, there's always something that needs to be done!

Congrats! I grew up on a farm, I hate living in an apt. now. Now you just have to convince the wife it's an r/c room, not a den:yes:

Congrats on the purchase man. I too can't live in a apartment. It's a good time to buy a house these days.

congrats, man - i know where you're coming from. (or, i smell what you're steppin' in :lol:) i just got a house last spring, and the last year has been soaked up by projects...but now that i'm getting caught up on them (well, within reason)... the r/c's are getting some attention!

it's great getting the bug all over again! :party:

Congrats...Please don't take pictures of any extra space like another member did :lol:, first thing that popped in my head was a R/C track with a nice view of the mountain.

Nice thing is that I back up to a large retention system which is dry unless it rains. It drains out quickly and leaves a very large 20 + acre area for bashing. People in the neighborhood ride motorcycles, 4wheelers, bikes, and horses back there too.

I Am actually not far from your door snellemin. Stuebner just north of 2920.

I like it so far. I bought the model home and cut a deal for all the furniture. Some we kept and some we didn't. Got a little of 2500 square feet which is over twice what we had in the apartment.

My son loves it too, he is 2 1/2 and the yard and extra space were greatly needed.

coolbeans man. I'm off 249 and northpointe. Do you ever go to the LHS Randy's?

Congrats Brian!! Glad to hear it. Does it have a garage...umm...I mean an R/C shop?

The next great moment is when you pay it off. I was able to do that this year! I hope you enjoy it!

I have a good friend who lives in Northpointe, just can't remember the street. Another friend lives in Northern Point, on the opposite side of Hufsmith/Khorville.

Thanks for all the congrats everyone. Still working to get pics.

Mark, paying it off is a definite plus, but unfortunately not in the immediate future....:yes:

Congrats on knocking out your note though.

I will say one thing, and others I know have experienced this as well. The creditors have gotten stupid. After what I went through to get this one, I have no desire to do it over again, ever. My bank jacked me around the day of closing then at 5:20 pm started asking me for more information. This after not communicating with me for a week. I was supposed to close Thursday March 26th, but did not close until Monday March 30th.

the 2 happiest days...the day you buy it and the day you sell it! (this applies to houses, boats and cars).....
