Bruce, thanks for sending tangible evidence that Claire and I own a home in Peoria, Arizona! The box arrived today. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Rick,

The koozies.....are a nice touch, however I think a life supply of sun screen would have been a wiser choice http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/naughty.gif

Congrats! How large is the new garage?

I have sunscreen as well...LOL. He can get that when he moves out here http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

I'll let Rick post the pics that I took...after all, it's his to share! http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beers.gif

BTW, he has a 3 car garage http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Haven't moved yet. First we need to sell this house in Maryland, and it's on the market now. We would like my son to finish his school year out in June before we move, but that is subject to change if this house sells quickly.

I really need to add Bruce's pics to my online album, but here are some I took in January.

Never owned a house that echoes like this one.

Garage is bigger than my present garage.

Looks like the stone bandits paid a visit. But we hope to have a pool in the back yard by the end of winter.

Check out Bruce's vid!

Moving to Phoenix in June http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif, I did that a few years ago. Can't say I recommend it, Jan/Feb is a better choice. You will be needing those Koozies.... a lot http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beers.gif

After all of this snow and the extreme winter we've had, I don't care how hot it is. I'll just drink plenty of water, apply liberal amounts of sunblock, and where a hat. It's a small price to pay for leaving snow shovels, snow blowers, lawn mowers, and ice melt behind. Last few times I was there in Phoenix, my Advil intake fell of to nothing. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Thanks Bill. I don't know about palacial, but we bought a larger home because of all of the friends and relatives who will no doubt be staying with us. So far, one of Claire's co-worders will visit in July, and her uncle will be visiting later in the year.

Hey, congrats Rick! Welcome to the Phoenix area.

I too will be moving back at the end of June and I share your sentiment. I was slightly sick of the heat when I left, but after 7 years on the East Coast and this past winter and current spring, I'll take the heat.

And yep, just wait 'til everyone starts piling in your home. My family had the same thing--constant visitors until pretty much everyone eventually moved to the area.

I find it hard to believe Bruce actually did something nice for someone. I mean, .........really, .........he's usually such a jerk.
