    Dang @Ozzie_Isaac looks like plenty of room for more.  May need to make a pit-stop.  BTW- is this another van or just the pace of operations with carry-over  ;)
    Same van.  There are 4 guys packing and loading.  Crazy hard workers.  Stop for 20 min lunch, no other breaks!

    @Ozzie_Isaac you must have quite a house and likely full.  I became a big fan of the pack and wrap on one day and load the next but each carrier has their own process.  I hope you get to experience the door-to-door deal.  Best of luck with all the new horizons and above all, enjoy the new chapter.

    This move has made me realize I am a hoarder.  We gave away 3 sofas, 2 lawn mowers, a weedeater, 4 or 5 full loads to Goodwill, a freezer, and a fridge.  I am still embarrassed by all the stuff!

    Going from 3000sq.ft plus a 1600 sq.ft basement, to 2600 sq.ft with no basement or attic will be interesting.

    @blind99 had no idea what I was getting. I just like to try different stuff when I'm out. Should have read the menu a little closer.

    @theyolksonyou -  keen eye right there.  I would bet is was more than a buck two-eighty or a nickel ninety-five.  But it only happens once...

    Wonder how much the kid dropped on this suit.

    I read a few years ago that the company that makes that cloth charges about $15K for the custom named/embroidered material for a suit. Many years ago Former Egyptian President Mobarak was known to have a pinstripe suit embroidered with his name in the stripes like that. I have no idea what a Savile Row tailor charges to turn that fabric into a bespoke suit but I would guess it's a bit less than the cost of the fabric.

    Whatever the cost, it's just pocket money for him. I love the look. Very classy.

    Did you do that by hand or use a sprayer?  I need to do mine.

    I used an Echo 3 gallon pump sprayer. It's easy just time consuming. Not sure how other stains work but the stuff I used called ready seal is amazing you spray it on and it can have horrible runs and it just evened itself out. No wiping or touching up or anything. I could have done the inside and outside in probably 5 hours or so and my fence is just over 160'.
