Well as all of you are aware Jodi and I have accepted the job offers down in Georgia. Jodi and I will be making our way down in two weeks to secure an apartment for me. Then over the Labor Day weekend Jodi, Braylen, and I will all be heading down to move me in with Jodi and Braylen flying back home. So yes Braylen will be making his first trip on a plane (up in the sky, as he would say). That should be a real experience for him and Jodi. The nice thing about the Atlanta airport is that there is a really nice atrium the you can hang out in before going through security, so I will be able to be with them right up till about 30 minutes before they leave.
Here is a picture of the building that we will be working out of. Upon our trip back I will update with a post as to what we find next week.

The first move is completed. We now live at 1219 Pine Ridge Dr., Highland MI 48357. Again we do not have a land line so use our cell phones Len 734.306.0139 Mary 734.658.054 Our email addresses have changed also Len lsfab@comcast.net Mary mbfab@comcast.net
It was SO HOT the day we moved I thought we would melt, we picked the hottest day of the year to date. I spent Monday moving the last items into storage, three truck loads to storage and one to the apartment. Now we wait for word from the builder when it is time for move number two. This week they started the brick work, the inside is wired, and plumbed to the basement and it is insulated. They expect to start hanging drywall this week. We were told to plan on the middle of September, I make no plans without it in writing! Barney now lives with his cousin Cicco in Milford, the apartment does not allow pets. The two of them will have some issues due to the age difference but it will work out.

I want to say a big THANK YOU to Brian for doing a great job trimming our tree. Center Line does a pretty good job with service, but I tried for two years with no luck to get our tree trimmed. Now the tree is off the house and we can see the world again out the window. Also thank you to Braylen who helped by cheering GO DADDA GO. Great job boys!

Hello all, as most of you know Mary and I have been on vacation for the last two weeks. We got home Sunday afternoon our flight from New York landed about 4pm we were met by Val and Milla. We spent 3 days in the Big Apple with Sarah and Dave, saw the sights, ate in the restaurants, rode in the cabs ( we now know how to hail one of the 1,200 yellow cabs in NYC) We stayed in a hotel that was two blocks from Time Square ,it is not a square but a triangle. We had coffee on the roof of Daves 6 story walk up after waiting in line at the Italian bakery at 10:30pm to get some terrific treat, it is true the city never sleeps. Friday morning we hired a car to take us to Brooklyn to board the Crown Princess that would be our home for the next 9 days. This family known boats, but this was BIG I did not know that a ship could have 19 decks it had, 5 pools, 9 hot tubs, and 19 bars. We sailed South to Bermuda then farther South to San Juan Puerto Rico, then West to St. Thomas, Virgin Islands then North to Grand Turk Island, we then sailed for three days back to New York. If you ever want to relax and turn your brain off for some time a cruise is the way to bo it they do everything for you except eat and you do a lot of that all of the stories that you hear about cruise ships and food is true.
Now that we are back it is time to finish packing up here and move out, we must be out by the 22nd of July. After that if you want to reach us call our cell phones mine is 734-306-0139 Mary’s is 734 658-0540. Our temporary home will be located at 1219 Pine Ridge, Highland MI, 48357. Our e-mail addresses will change also because TDS does not service that area. Will try to keep you informed as it happens. If I could figure out how to post photos I would include some, that will be future undertaking.
