I'm unemployed (voluntarily). It's weird to come home and not have a boss (other than the wife).

Today was my last day on the job (15 years here).

Moving truck is here and we're packing up for the long haul to Florida. Heading out next Thursday. So long, Oregon...

Tony.

I hope you have smooth sailing setting up your gunsmithing operation.

Great time to move, just take note I-4 can be major nightmare with traffic between Tampa and Orlando but especially heavy around Disney.

Moving to a free state. Great decision.

I hope it turns out well Benny.

On a side note: All of this free state is mostly nonsense. While I get it. Or. is a great state with some awesome aspects. 80% is run by 20% of the NW corner. Yes Portland area is a shithole now. The rest of the state is not. Mountains, Ocean, valleys, desert, etc.

Florida has great aspect's too. But a lot of not so great aspects as well. Probably in reality a lot more negative than Or. For me anyways.

Again, good luck Benny. Just don't expect all Unicorns and rainbows.

Spent 3 years in Vancouver just across the river from Portland. Was never so glad to leave an area in my life. Welcome to the sunny South. Know you are going to love it here.
