Interesting. Sounds like today is a good day.SAWCE wrote: ↑Fri Apr 02, 2021 9:18 am Off work today for Good Friday since we have a large catholic workforce.
Let myself hit snooze once before getting up and heading to the gym for my cardio. Came home and did 20 minutes of mobility work. Having breakfast now, then I may get back in bed for a nap. Michelle works, so will be nice to have a day just by myself to fuck off. Might take one of my meals to the beach and just go relax there for a bit.

Our appraisal came back at our purchase price this morning and we got locked in at 3.25% interest. There's now nothing left that we absolutely have to do except for pay ~$100k in closing/moving costs.

Free shit. Pick up at the curb here. I had never lifted that HF floor jack before - holy hell is it heavy... Apparently it weighs 95 lbs according to Harbor Freight.

Yes the Steel ones are 95lbs. Which is fine if it never leaves your garage, but the aluminum ones are worth the price increase.troyguitar wrote: ↑Fri Apr 02, 2021 3:15 pm Free shit.

I can understand giving away the lawnmower, as long haul movers wont accept anything with a gas engine generally but why are you abandoning the jack and the stands? Weight savings?troyguitar wrote: ↑Fri Apr 02, 2021 3:15 pm Free shit. Pick up at the curb here. I had never lifted that HF floor jack before - holy hell is it heavy...

Yes. I already have smaller, lighter jacks and stands that I use with our little car. These big ones were used back when I had the Audi wagons and now they're just dead weight which adds cost to the move. ~200 lbs of jack and stands costs practically $200 to move, I can buy new ones if necessary for that price.Irish wrote:I can understand giving away the lawnmower, as long haul movers wont accept anything with a gas engine generally but why are you abandoning the jack and the stands?

We also have zero grass in our new yard so the mower is useless.

Also after all of the recalls I don't think that those HF jack stands should be used/valued by anyone...

There are maybe 30 people on this 100ish yard stretch of beach down here. Most are women with Life is good.

So the itinerary has been set.
Day 1 Death Valley/Vegas
Day 2 Vegas
Day 3 Grand Canyon/ Scottsdale
Day 4/5 Scottsdale
Day 6/7 San Diego
Day 8 LA
Taking the taco from the home base. Decided not to fly at the moment/due to various complexities. And it’ll hit the place where we got engaged and a few places where we haven’t been.

Ugh, I definitely hurt my lower back carrying that damn jack from the basement to the curb today. No way I'd be physically able to DIY a move at this point in our life.

Thats awesome man, lots of travel time though. I wohld honestly suggest instead of SD, hit up sequoia and kings canyon NPs in the sierras. I did kind of the reverse a couple years ago -- LA, sequoia, DV, Vegas in 5 days and it was a lot.max225 wrote:So the itinerary has been set.
