Thanks Eric. Yeah, it is very nice. We still have our home back in Pensacola that we're leasing out. Apparently I'm picking up properties as I go along.

Nothing like having someone else pay your mortgage for you while you build equity!

Congratulations on buying your own house, Matt

If you are using Microsoft just right click on the picture you want to downsize and click the option to edit.

I dont have any special photo software and I can downsize my pictures.

Yeah... it was awesome... 2 Forts, an aviation museum, an airfield with rare warbirds, niagra falls and Tim Hortons!


GREAT day.. I plan on doing a separate thread about it soon.

Pbfoot has some connections.. the man can pull strings!


>>hope I didn't bore the poor guy

The day before I woke up at 4:30 am (1:30 PST)! I wasn't close to bored... just a little sleepy. Plus I had to get back to Toronto to chase Canadian skirt!
