Sounds like a plan Pete. That is going to be one busy weekend for us.

Jim, if you buy a trailer and then move here, you can store the trailer at my house until you sell it or whatever. I have a huge backyard with plenty of room for that.

It was a quiet night. J-L went to her brother to visit her neice and sister in law. Jeff promised me that he would take good care of J-L. I have to go pick her up today. It is 1 1\2 hours away.

That's a good idea. I really want to keep the cost down.

Thanks so much Scott. I'm going to try and give you a call this week if that's ok?

Thats great Jim!

You could put down some plywood or osb on the floor and sides and have pertty much of a inclosed trailer.

Good morning all!

Thanks Brad. The closing on the house is scheduled for June 15th.

I'll poke around and see what I can find. I have a 45' trailer that we use for a shop. Too bad I couldnt hook that to my truck! We even built an office inside of there.

Got a CDL? Could you rent a truck for the ride? I bet you could find an O/O willing to haul that trailer down south for you.

No CDL here. The trailer would need a lot of work to be road worthy though. It is good for storage and that's about it. By the time I put money into getting it road worthy I could have bought a brand new trailer.
