Yes, way to go Dario. I am glad to see that things are going your way. Now, send me an e-mail as to what wood you have to sell. My wife just gave me permission to buy more wood.

Sure would hate it if someone were to offer me a job. Didn't like much about working when I was younger but now at 70, just leave me alone.
Congrats on moving to Austin. That is a wonderful place to live and the wood that grows out there will keep you making pens for a long time.
 
That's good to hear, Dario. Please keep me posted as to where and when you will be moving. Austin is a lot closer to Houston than Edinburg! Let me know by PM what woods you need to downsize.
 
Thanks guys!

I am going to Austin tomorrow to find an apartment...I will know more after that how much I need to downsize. I need to move this week since I am starting Monday next week! [:0]
 
Dario, Very happy for you and Austin is a great town. Now if you can get Curtis to store some stuff for you:D:D[}:)].

That's great news, Dario! Let's hope there's a really affordable apartment in Austin that has a woodworking shop attached.

Al,

Very good thought and we can dream can't we? :)

Sadly, I cannot afford a house rental, they are rare and very expensive. Looking at the prices online, I will probably end up with a small 2Br 2 bath apartment w/o any yard or a garage [B)]
 
Ruth,

I am just being realistic and aiming for what my budget can get me. IF I stumble on a great deal as you described within my budget, then I will take that as another grace. :) I have a lot of catching up with regards to my finances so I cannot stretch my budget. The events these past 10 months have been very "humbling" for me/us. [8)]
 
Hi,

Great news Dario. Life always take care of good people. Just post what you have for sale, double your price for me if you want, it's about time we give something back to you after all what i've seen you giving around here.

Alfred
 
Congratulations Dario. We can pray that God will administer grace and give you a nice place to live. Keep looking up!

Dario, great to hear of your news. :D

Give me a call when you get to Austin. I'm in a north suburb and have lived here since '92. It's a nice place.... Take care
 
Dario, congratulations, Austin is a great town, fortunately there are or were some outlying areas that used to be affordable, but now there's this gas trade off, but it should also put you in a good market, and your close to some hot tourist towns, don't forget to say High to Willy [:eek:)][:eek:)][:eek:)][:eek:)]
 
Dario,

If ther is anything I can do, please let me know. I don't know how pratical it would be for you but you are MORE THAN WELCOME to borrow part of my shop to set up your lathe, etc. until you can get something of you own. If you don't want to do that, then please at least let me store the stuff for you at not charge until you get a place. Give me a shout if you would be willing to accept any of my help. I also own a mini-storage here in San Marcos you could store some of your household stuff in. I can not give you free storage there but can make you a heck of a deal. You should still have my number.
 
Great News! I'd love to relieve you of some more wood but after buying my lathe I'll be turning down my inventory for A WHILE before the boss lets me buy any more. Austin is a great town, I'm sure you'll love it.
 
Dario congrats and I know you will get it all worked out. Keep your hopes up on finding a place.

Curtis your offer is once again what makes this site still the best and you couldn't be offering it to a better person. KUDOS!! and thanks
 
Congrats Dario, I also work in austin (semiconductors) but live 30 miles south in Lockhart. Hope you like tye dyes you austinite. I have a 16 ft double axle trailer you can borrow if you need one. :)
 
Thanks for the offers guys (esp. Curtis and Lupe). I will be off to Austin in a few minutes, hope I find a good place.
 
Congrats Dario! Hope the move goes smoothly, and you can get back to getting back! Let us know about the wood thing, we would be happy to help make the move lighter....
 
Dario, I have often felt that you were not completely happy with your last move. I hope this one works better and you are happier. Congratulations!
