Yes, looks identical to yours. Close enough anyway. When I said I'd be afraid, all I meant that I don't know if I'd like it 20 years from now. It looks nice though.

Looks great but gotta ask.

Where is the boat parking?

Hopefully it lasts. It's hard to get clean right now. Wife wanted as much tile as possible for keeping clean and longevity

Well the truck isn't getting parked in the garage and the wife's cavalier doesn't take up the whole garage

While I was building I spent 6 months is a brand new condo with dark walnut colored hardwood flooring. January - June. It was an absolute nightmare keeping the floors from showing every little spot. (Kind of like keeping a black hull clean with none of the appreciation of cleaning a boat after a day on the water).

Hopefully the tile isn't that bad. The wood plank style tile I put in my breezeway that leads from the pool to the hall hides everything. But it is a lighter color than yours.

Beautiful house. Congratulations.

Well done Russell's!! Superbowl party at your new place! Again, nice work guys!

[clrussell]

Thanks John and Neil, everyone is welcome to come watch the Super Bowl at the new house, only problem is we don't have a big tv or probably won't have dish at the new house!

We can go old school rabbit ears! If several of us show up, house will be complete by 1/2 time. A complete ?????

Thanks Corbin. I have to pass on the invite. But hey, this summer or next year's bowl when you have that projector and surround sound hooked up I'm all in.

[clrussell]

Sounds like a good idea Neil!

There will be a large screen of some sort and awesome surround sound in the basement in the future!

Well we are going to stay in the new house tonight. We have spent all day moving. I never would have dreamed we had that much stuff.

Big thanks to my friends that came and helped out(even though they will probably never read this). Used my truck, my suburban, buddies truck and enclosed trailer and got it all in two trips with the truck and ons trip with the burb.

I havnt introduced y'all to the burban yet, so I guess now will be a good time. I'm trying to sell my 3/4 ton diesel and if I ever get it sold I'll be able to get a newer boat. So I've been looking for something to drive. I traded for this suburban back in October and I have about $1500 in it the way it sets. So I figured why keep trying to sell it when I could drive it? It runs and drives! 1969 suburban, 350, 4speed, 4x4, power steering, manual brakes. Now it's not the prettiest but it'll tow the boat just fine after I do a few things to er. Here she is all loaded down


I emptied the burban out and got my shield from Matt while the wife was putting away kitchen items. Home improvement #1

A few of the boxes the wife had to put away
