moving = painful

ok so last week I got a fluke opportunity at a great job. in florida. been wanting to move south for sometime but not really seeing it as a reality for a year or two yet. now with this, reality is right now. decided to take the leap, now for the fun. work on the dually has sped up to get it prepared. jeep or other truck will be sold, house goes on the market. finish up my work here, sell other various items, load camper and truck, find campground...........

this will be and exciting couple weeks for sure. if all goes well I will be in Florida next month.

kind of hate to leave behind my house and garage. I built the garage with the help of my son, and have done tons of work to the house, but I have zero interest in another winter in Wisconsin.

will be a trying couple months I'm sure as the girlie will be staying behind to sell the house, and pack the remaining items and what not.

I'll be living in the camper for a while until we get something settled there. haven't even had a chance to camp in the camper. LOL

Not sure how bad the roads suck up there, but they really suck down here... I told ONSSP about this and she was like, "OMG does that mean we can have doggie dates and meet that cute bulldog."

roads here are unbelievable. we get huge upheavels and potholes because of winter. road construction season is in full swing right now so almost every major highway is tore up.

absolutely the dogs will have to get together. although I am on strict orders that I can not bring bully with me. she can only come down with mom. LOL that's mom's special girl you know.

He meant, do they turn. The alphabet roads of Wisconsin are amazing rides, if just because they follow creeks and rivers which normally make them curvy and fun. Florida is a grid pattern, most turns are either freeway exits or drive-thrus.

Congratulations on the job, and good luck with the move!! It's all very exciting!

What part of FL?

wildchild · 05-20-2011, 10:44 AM

Orlando. was hoping to get something a little farther south but this is a whole lot closer to my dad's place then Wisconsin and a whole lot warmer as well. LOL

Good luck with that! Sounds exciting and scary at the same time.

adventure ftw
