OT: Baja house update

Hi Mac

Thanks for the pic's, place is starting to look a lot more civilized, that shop still looks over the top though , ceramic tiles and wet shavings, that's never going to work in my shop, i'll have to make do with just ordinary concrete. I love that vista, and right from your shop windows, lots of light in there also, seems like real tranquility out there, Oct. 12 is it ? strange date it seems, or do you need the time to get your present place empty and vacated ? I'm sure you and your better half are going to love it out there, beautiful place Mac. So what kind of wood working are you doing right now, if any spare time, whittling sticks? heheheh.

Have fun and take care Leo Van Der Loo

Well, it was easier to go with it than make changes when the builder was doing so well.. I'll have anti-fatiage mats down and I'm hoping to do a lot of turning outside...

yeah, it's wonderful.. slower paced life, nice people and my kind of weather.... The compromise was that my wife got to spend a lot of time at the beach and that I got to work in the shop and look at the beach.. *g*

That was the available date the movers from Baja had.. we pretty much based everything else around that... we've been pretty much packed for a couple of weeks, so the sooner they could get here the better... You have to have all of your stuff inventoried and the boxes labeled when you get your visa and submit your list, which we did last weekend.... so we live out of boxes until the movers get here...

thanks, Leo.. doesn't hurt that my child bride will be retiring at 48, either... a dream come true, for sure..

NOTHING... grrr.. Everything is packed... I walk into the shop, which is now a garage again... full of Uhaul boxes with labels in Spanish... The lathes and saws and stuff are in the middle but secured and not usable, any tools not needed to work on our present house are packed... including all the lathe tools, of course..

Just watching Bill Grumbine's new DVD and going through turning withdraw..

Mac

Thanks, Arch... Very nice of you!
