    Can't say that I blame you - That would be one crazy hellish commute from Parmer to DS every day.

    We'll have to grab a beer once you resettle up this way; I'm only a couple miles from the campus.

    Congrats man, too bad you got to sell the place but my commute typically is not bad. Good luck on the sale of the house and new house hunting.

    Guess we will need to do Yota moving party...

    We're hoping for a quick ish sell and hope to have a potential or two lined up so we can skip any in between uncertainties.

    Didn't take a lot pic. It was late and I was irritated the dealer kept me there so long. Drove it off the lot with 3 miles on it. Only person to ever test drive it :) Never this clean again.

    From July. I need a new pic with the tent on.

    Thank you. :cheers:

    We are looking in the Cedar park area as well right now. all the way over to Manor and up to georgetown. Lots of options so far.

    I sure hope so. That'd be the weekend before I start the new job and although we'll be busy cleaning and posting up the house, a camping trip is so needed and overdue. I'll keep pushing for it for sure :D
