My wife and I just moved to Gilbert from TN. She's from there, I was there for work (then I met her). We're NEC of Gilbert & Warner.

I looked into buying a home in this lil subdivision in 2004. The old job was taking me outta here to TN, so I opted not to buy.

On another note, I just noticed how many of you are paid members of this forum. I suppose sooner than later I should find a way to squeeze a few $$ and join (then I'll be allowed to change my name).
