Thanks! How's your project coming BTW?

Going to be taking a lot longer than expected. A friend of mine and I ripped out 100% of the floors of the upstairs yesterday. Today is the first floor (+ baseboards/trim). Then am going to try hammering in/down the staples that were used for the floor into the subfloors. Once that is done we will be using Kilz (oil-based sealant/primer) on the floors and all of the walls (after replacing whatever drywall we need to...) then will be painting. Once we have painted we will be installing new underlayment+hardwood floors (at this time we are thinking of a cherry/brown bamboo). After all that it will be about as close to move-in-ready as I think we can get. Hoping to have all of that done in the next few weeks. Ugh.

Ugh, good luck with all the work Don. Looks like nice work on your living room David.

Updating first post. We're on for my place.

It is amazing how much your living room looks like mine. I have the hardwood with brown walls and white trim also. With the recessed lights too.

LOL... Small world!

I know we're really happy with how it looks!

Anyway... Just bumping this up... Hoping to get some input and see who is planning to attend!

Texas is so big... Hey DOM! Nice to see you over here!

7hrs isn't that bad. You guys are spoiled in your tiny states.

I'm driving down to San Diego on thursday. 14 hour drive almost all 65-70MPH freeways, still in the same state. How's that for perspective?

TyDyMiler · Oct 2, 2012

I'm 4 to 5hours away from Rootstown >.> Seems like I've got one of the shortest drives XD

TsunamiJuan · Oct 2, 2012

4-5 hour drive is nothing imo. I'll easily do that without stopping once.

TyDyMiler · Oct 2, 2012

I'm not worried about it. If I stop at all, it'll just be to grab a snack, but I don't even think that'll happen.

Janus67 · Oct 2, 2012

I may have to cancel my trip/involvement for this one. I think we will be pushing to move in by the end of the month so I won't be able to leave the wife alone during the last couple days of the month during crunch time.

I.M.O.G. · Oct 2, 2012

Bummer Don. Let me know if things are looking better by the month, but priorities are priorities.

Wow! I could drive from the north coast of Scotland to the south coast of England, and then go back again in that sort of time, that's the full length of the uk twice

one of you're states is bigger than my whole country

Convicted1 · Oct 8, 2012

~19 days (depending on how you read the calendar) till Team Missouri puts the smackdown on Team Ohio.

Just keeping this fresh in everybodies heads...

BeepBeep2 · Oct 8, 2012

I might have to pass as well, I have a concert to play with the Akron Regional Chamber Orchestra on the evening of the 27th.

I suppose I could be there earlier in the day.

KonaKona · Oct 8, 2012

Not sure if I posed this here or not but moogfest is that weekend, and I'll be in NC. :-/

Convicted1 · Oct 9, 2012

Alright... Kind of need to know if there are still some of the Missouri guys coming...

Making the arrangements for LN2 and such... And need to know how many to plan for.

Dolk · Oct 10, 2012

I'm sorry guys

I have to back out. I have an interview with Molex in Little Rock that weekend.
