Spring 2011....                                                  Revised:   June 11, 2011 12:28 PM

I have Moved!... 

Welcome to my new "Place In The Sun" (Pits)  "Casa OWD"  Pronounced 'Owed'  which stands for "Ohhhh Whaddaa Dump"  or.... as my my Yahoo alert said..... "Movin on Down".   Yes, for less than the cost of a new Mercedes you too can have a Condo from Hell complete with 12 leaks in the plumbing.  Yes count-em.... 12 leaks! None were serious and the Toilet was completely shot (now replaced with a new one) and there was water damage to walls and cabinets. Much of the Electrical was non-functioning, no heat or air-conditioning, and about half of the Kitchen Cabinets were just plain missing.  So, Why?, you ask, would anybody buy such a place? In a word "Cheap". 

I have moved from 3,600 sq ft to 1,200 sq ft and now to 780 sq ft. Each time a little more has to go and life gets a little simpler. I love to travel and do things. Since I am semi-retired I need to cut the overhead costs to enjoy some of those things. I am fully aware most people could not take on the remodel of a fully degraded property, but I have both the skills and time to do so. It would make no economic sense whatsoever to do this if you had to pay outside contractors to do the work.  And most importantly, I actually enjoy taking a run-down property and restoring it. I take great pride in the work I am able to do.

Summer employment this year is not looking promising. I had my application in since last Nov. to work in Wyoming but due to budget cuts and High Gas prices reservations are down 25%. So I still have a few weeks to figure out what I want to do and will wait and see if I get an offer. My 5 months in Alaska last summer under contract to Princess Hotels was a great experience I was hoping to repeat this year at a stateside location.

My Handyman work continues and I have reduced the scope of what I will take on.  Since I have no mortgage payment now the urgency to generate an income has diminished. It still gives me cause to get out of bed in the morning and hustle a little, but I am more relaxed about the work now. As the Snowbirds will be leaving soon so will my work.

Got out for a couple of days of Hiking and stayed overnight with friends in central California but it was raining both days and miserably cold! As we have warmer weather now, I would like to go camping soon before the 'April Winds' on the Mojave begin.

Another trip to Indiana this summer sometime and will try to get back up to Washington state as well. I have recently been thinking about the 2 continents I have not yet visited Africa & Antarctica. Just as I worked to get to all 50 states, it would be nice to add all the continents. OR How about the US territories? So far I can only count 2 of the 7. Almost all are in the South Pacific and safe to visit but ghastly expensive....Hmnnnn......
