Mike,
How were you able to move everything cross country, cars, etc? That looks like a lot of stuff. :confused:

Mostly Natasha. She practically coordinated everything. Pods. Transport for the cars. Procured the packing material (and packed). Lawyers. Mortgage. Paying all the bills. Utilities on/off. Enrolled/removed the kids from school. Booking hotels. Planning gas stops. Managing both sides of the sale. Endless hours of thankless work preparing the house, packing, loading, moving, unloading, unpacking.

I was just the muscle... and she still slings heavy boxes and furniture by herself. Here she is carrying my grandfather's chair:



I believe you cannot be part of the 'hood' until the neighbors have experienced you in your full glory. And I won't believe that's done until you've blessed the road with rubber. And without pics/vids means it's only hearsay.



Kidding aside - congrats and hope it works as well as you hope for you and your family.


Now onto burnout pics ;)

I'll have to do it merging onto the highway - we're off a long gravel road now.

glad it's going well,especially with the bigger stuff.each passing day it'll come together a little more.it's very stressful but you certainly made it look the opposite. (y)

Thanks - I have the world's best partner in crime, and our kids are angels.

I managed to hook up my BBQ today... chicken never tasted so good.

Time to go assemble a bunk bed!

They already make them:
Yeah, but if you make your own like you did with the exhaust that's where you get street cred in those parts.

Get used to the wind Mike on the Prairies. The dry cycles, like we are in, are especially bad for wind. It has been a real piss off for boating and fishing. Nothing like dirt blowing in your face🤔. Glad to see you getting settled. What is your Winter driver? I will wave at every vehicle that matches the description in Saskatoon the next maybe 6 months I have to live there. Welcome to the Gap.

So if you live in the Mad Max universe now and masks are recommended/expected...

I'll still enjoy seeing photos of your projects,

But you can keep the weird leather and straps attire to yourself, please....

One hell of a way to make a good impression when first bringing the kids to the new school. Bet the teachers wouldn't nag you for conferences....

Nah, get a spiked dog collar and have Natasha lead you in on a leash. But wear leather chaps and a police hat.
