As I'm sure you can imagine, the house is anything but unpacked at this point. If you want interior pics, I'll have to post some of the original listing photos. Otherwise, it's gonna be a while until we have everything in it's place.

The house is in pretty good shape, although that is relative to others with children under 2. Like... "Why the @#$% am I cleaning up these blocks? When he wakes up from his nap in 2 hours, he's going to spread these plastic landmines across the entire living room floor anyways... :banghead: "
:lol: Such is life...
No new updates on the Batmobile. 39 days until my deer season opens. Also, small game and fall turkey is in right now. So IF I can get a free afternoon---which seems to be only once or twice a month
---I'm headed out in the woods. Had a pretty good Saturday afternoon. Went way back in and confirmed some intel I had marked for investigation on some satellite maps. My hopes are high for this season...
On my way out of the woods, I ran into another hunter (who looked like Santa Claus) who told me there is a "monstrous 10 point" back in there. "Probably a 24" spread and north of 250 lbs."

Also, I am totally down with that pistol location. I have a set of magnets for just such a placement. But of course you have to exercise a lot of common sense. There are times that I have to go into a building where I can't legally carry my pistol and I leave it in a lockbox inside the car. If I got real comfortable doing that and installed the magnets, I might have to make myself a note to triple check where it is. Obviously you don't want to walk away for even a moment, with the gun visible from the outside. Such as in this location.
Then you should consider retention of the gun in whatever holstering method you are using. i.e. could it come loose and go flying in an accident or does it have a strap that secures it in place?

Sadly, not really. Little by little I've been getting things done around the house. But the Batmobile has been on an extended back burner. My wife is pregnant again and for the last 8-10 weeks, she has been throwing up every hour. That leaves me to watch the kid most of the time and it really prevents you from getting any serious work done. Finally that is starting to subside, so maybe I can get back out in the garage and start working on the car again.
Part of the difficulty of getting restarted after moving, is getting the work space, all your tools, parts, etc. reorganized. I've had to build steel shelving in the garage just to put half of the stuff on. The car itself has 95% of all the parts still required for the build, shoved INSIDE it. It's so full, you couldn't sit in any of the seats. So I'll definitely make some progress on it this summer, but I haven't managed to restart yet. Maybe it'll be on the road this year. That would be best.

I know that house feeling.
My wife and I have a stay-cation set up this spring, where even my mother-in-law is going to come help. For a few days during the week, so we have daycare, we're going to take vacation days and reorganize the garage, build some shelving between the exposed studs, reorganize the shed, do yard work, etc... It's going to be GLORIOUS because right now everything just rests where it first got unpacked, and doing anything sucks.
Oh! Another thing. I had to pick up a piece of kid's furniture at Ikea the other day and saw this in the parking lot. Of course, I left a forum referral card...
And yes, it is pulling a small trailer.
