Thanks Larry. It's going to a collector down in Texas. Should be a good home for it.

I'd wanted a TD since I was in high school. I will miss it for sure.

Sorry Tom. These decisions are hard to make as we get older. Try as I can, gets harder to complete projects and keep up on the ones that are done. Somehow that thing called age just showed up. I know you have other things to occupy your time. I too have too many.

Other things for sure. I have to sell my house and find another. Neighborhood went downhill with all the renters nearby. Fireworks, Racing pickups, huge bonfires, noisy unsupervised children, garbage in the lawn, late night "visits" - really sad. Spent 30 years improving my property. So at 72 I have to start over. Not fun.

Bittersweet for sure. Do you think that when the dust settles you'll want to find something to replace it?

Gotcha Tom. Wife says we move, South. Giving up a 21 yr Purple Martin colony due to neighbors. Trees taking over flyways, weeds and only one neighbor mows grass,.noisy trucks that are unlicensed. Seems they collect $200 trucks without pipes, and let them sit. So far 4 trucks and only one has up to date plates, boats and a Firebird in backyard. That is one neighbor, the one behind us parties, the one on the side is drugs, and the one across highwy hasn't mowed in two years for sake of Monarh butterflies he tells Village. So move it is, just turned 70, moving seven vehicles. House is 100 yrs old and wife has it full of antiques. Going to sell what we can and move, but after her 93 yr old Mom kicks the bucket which probably won't be soon enough to be able to move.
