Subject: Re: Leave it to beaver Thursday Chat 03.15.18 by vetteblondie on 2018/3/15 22:13:35 My friend that owns the body shop I help out at 2 days a week - he retired a year and a half ago but has still been working. We've finished the frame off on the 65 C10 and were about to pick back up on his 68 Vette and his wife upped her retirement by a year or so. She quits in June. sped things up a bit. His son is a Dr. there and has a 165-acre farm and his Dr. friend has property next to his. It has a 100+ year old small farm house, catfish pond, barn, more modern 2-car garage etc. The 'barn' is actually old looking with a slider wall that opens up to a fairly nice concrete slab floor with wall to wall cabinets, fridge and cookstove and a wood heating stove. Quite deceiving. We've hauled the 68 Vette, the dune buggy, the 59 Apache and everything else from the shop that he's keeping up there already. This uhaul tomorrow will be the last load from the shop to go. House starts next. They've been going up there about once a month to work on the house. Their son also just bought another house there and will be moving soon as well but will still be close by. Not sure if they'll keep the acreage they have now or not tho but my friend and his wife will be caretaking 5 acres or so of the property theyll be on |
