My House Is Nearing Completion
We're building in Citrus County in Pine Ridge. Target date for completion is next month.... April.
Coming along VERY well, with minimum problems during the build.
Target date for my wife and I to move? Probably Dec. 08.
I'm getting psyched. 
We've been flying down about every 6 weeks to check things out. In April, I'm borrowing my BIL's construction trailer and driving down with a few items to make the place liveable...like a bed, some dishes, etc.
Here are some pix. The garage is 36 X 28. One bay has a cathedral ceiling for my lift.

Just these 3. Sold my 54 Corvette and sold my 2000 Corvette.
After the 54 was gone, I bought the 56 Chevy.
I have 2 DD's, a Tahoe (me) and a Saturn Vue (Mrs. Chuck)

Wow! Nice garage! One of these days I need to have a garage built here somewhere. And want to have the ceiling high enough to put in a lift if it strikes me.
Hope the house gets done ahead of schedule for you.

Hello Chuck,
 Welcome to Citrus County!
When you get settled in, we hope you'll pay us a visit at the Citrus County Corvette Club.  It's a fantastic group of fun loving Corvette people!  We have a general membership meeting the second Tuesday of the month (7PM - ABC Pizza on SR-19 in Crystal River). Come by and look me up.
Take a look at our web-site, when you have time;
http://www.citruscorvettes.com/
The 'Activity Photo" section will show some of our past events.
You can look at our online calendar for upcoming outings.
 A lot of our members live in Pine Ridge.

Congrats Chuck! Do you have any idea how long you will be down on this trip? Have you figured out when you are going to ship the cars down and who you are going to use? Let me know if you need anything.
Rich

Thanks for the invite to the Citrus County CC.
I'm aware of the club, but have not had a chance to go to any events/meetings when we've been down on previous trips.
Rich. NOT sure how long we'll be down. Probably a week from the 20th to the 27th.
I'll give you a call.
Chuck
