Made it into GA on monday. Got the furniture on tuesday. Thursday we finally got our cable lost the internet and tech came back out this morning and Im on. The house has a few quirks to take care of. Not bad for looking over the internet. Love the neighborhood. It's quiet lots and lots of trees. Backyard is full of pecan trees. Need to put an awning over the back porch cause falling pecans hurt. Garage is huge plenty of room to work in. I'll get some pics up later.

Congrats on the move. Are you in the area of GA that has the really tight water restrictions right now?

Can't be worse than chestnuts can it? I wish we had pecan trees, I love pecans. All we have are black walnut trees and I don't even like walnuts.

After this discussion of nuts, hope everyone is doing good. Enjoy the south!

Glad you made it safely! Welcome to the south.

Anytime you want to get rid of some of those pecans, just let us know.

Very nice!
I agree with the driveway slope. I HATE when the driveway slopes towards the house. You'll get a nice little pond when it rains. My driveway slopes away from my house. I see that as still being a PITA. I can't work on my car outside in the driveway.

Looks like a nice wooded area in the back of the house.
In the shot of the front of the house, the area to the right of where your car is parked, what's behind that wall? Is it part of the garage or is the garage strictly a 2 car?
Also, that's not Gub'ment housing is it, or is it just a normal everyday neighborhood?

The garage is a two car, the area to the right is laundry and part of the basement.

Not govt. housing. Regular ole neighborhood. Believe it or not this is the first time I've lived on the economy since I left home 16 years ago lol.

Garage isn't too bad. Actually looks like you been there for awhile!
Is it possible to get some steel and support the beams to take out that pole in the center?
We had some plates fab up for our porch and we took out two 4x4 poles.
I like the little four wheel truck down the street.
I like the chevy pickup alot.

Can't put beams in since Im renting.

I like the truck alot too. Only bad thing is the back seat is getting tight for the kids. Looking at the Avalanches.

Have you heard about the MPG on those Avalanches, wow. I guess the newer ones might be better, but the off road 4x4 package ones, like in the Excursion MPG range, lol!

When I get one it'll be 2WD with the Z85 package. MPG won't be much worse then the current truck.
