blange3's 180 upgrade

[momof6kids]

Bill, Congratulations on your newest baby. Can't wait to see it up and running.

Remember, we visual people need pictures!! So take a lot. ;D

 

[mikem]

Bill. I'll be there with my pick-up.

 

[blange3]

So tomorrow, 4/16 is the day.

We can meet at my place or Mongoose's place at 6:30.

It will be a simple move straight out of a garage and into my living room. Only 3 stairs involved.

I couldn't get the basement cleared out this weekend due to 2 funerals and the death of my car. The car has been brought back to life.

That just means there will be a second moving party with more pizza and beer!

At last count I think we had:

Brian
John
Mike M. with his pickup
My daughter's boyfiend
Myself

Others are welcome!

 

[Brian]

Damn, with all those people showing up, I just may sit IN the tank and drink a beer while being carried like a king! ;D

Pretty sure MikeM is going to be able to do THAT by himself!

Wish I could be on Picture Patrol, but SOMEONE has to get the kids in bed. Since I can't carry the tank on my back, that's going to be me. Hopefully someone will carry a camera 'round for it (I wanna see the inside of Mongoose's 'Closet')!

 

[mikem]

I'll be at Joe's at 6:30.

 

[Brian]

Bill, I'll probably meet you @ your house. Let me know what time you would like me there.

 

[JohnS_323]

I'll meet up with you guys at your house too, Bill. Just let me know what time.

 

[blange3]

Thanks Guys!

We can meet at my place at 6:15. Joe's place is 10 minutes from the house.

Mike, don't buy all his frags while you are waiting for us to meet you! ;D

 

[Edwardw771]

do you need me? I can make it too?

 

[blange3]

do you need me? I can make it too?

If it's convenient you might as well join us and get some beer and pizza!

Thanks!

I'll pm address and phone.

 

[blange3]

Da 180 is in da house! 8)

Thanks Mike M, Brian and John! It's great to have someone ready to help whenever you need it.

Thanks to Mongoose as well for a great deal.

No the hard work begins, cleaning up the basement. :

I need to wire an outlet as well.

 

[Brian]

Basement?! BASEMENT?!?!

I thought WE had agreed it would stay in the living room.


No problem with the ((ahem)) help...It was pretty easy eating pizza and drinking beer. I enjoy these tank moves more and more!

 

[mikem]

Always glad to help out Mr. Bill. If you need anything else, give us a shout.
Congrats again on a beautiful new tank.

 

[blange3]

Basement?! BASEMENT?!?!

I thought WE had agreed it would stay in the living room.

Shhhh.... That is still a possibility.

 

[JohnS_323]

TO ANYONE READING THIS THREAD (or dating Bill's daughter) - DO NOT offer to help Bill move the tank to the basement. That way it'll have to stay just where it is!

Congrats Bill. It's a great looking tank. I can't wait to see it full.

 

[RichT]

I enjoy these tank moves more and more!

Hmmmm.....where did I see that ad for the 450?

Congrats Bill, I'm sure it will be spectacular whether upstairs or *cough* in the basement.

 

[Brian]

Here are some pics of Mongoose's tanks and infamous "closet", along with the tank move and it's FINAL resting place ;D

 

[JohnS_323]

<<<Warning: Inside Joke Ahead>>>

Bill, you're only one post away! Post something QUICK!

 

[blange3]

Thanks again for the help everyone!

The tank is still in the living room and the idea of it staying there is gaining momentum.
