JosephH Posted July 24, 2006 Posted July 24, 2006 Jim is in the process of moving to new digs and could use some help moving. We're renting a U-Haul Wed. evening and we could sure use some help. If we could get a few strong backs we could make quick work of it in two short trips in just a couple of hours. Anyone available to help out??? Quote
phillygoat Posted July 24, 2006 Posted July 24, 2006 Count me in, but those VHS tapes better be packed up and ready to go when I get there! Phillip Quote
JosephH Posted July 24, 2006 Author Posted July 24, 2006 Phillip, there you are - good to have your cc name. Jim's reference library is packed up and ready to roll. Quote
iain Posted July 24, 2006 Posted July 24, 2006 He claimed to me to have a bunch of betamax tapes. Sounds like he got them all converted over to the new technology. Quote
billcoe Posted July 24, 2006 Posted July 24, 2006 So Iain, I'll buy the beer if you show up. I'll probably buy the beer anyway:-) Quote
iain Posted July 24, 2006 Posted July 24, 2006 Time and location? I just might be free. If so I also have a truck if that helps. Quote
ivan Posted July 24, 2006 Posted July 24, 2006 would dig on helping out but already planned on sweltering in the alpine that day - will come along if the stupid heat makes me pansy out... Quote
kevbone Posted July 24, 2006 Posted July 24, 2006 I was there yesterday, moving all the frickin wood from the front of the house. what a pain in 100 degree wheather. Quote
billcoe Posted July 25, 2006 Posted July 25, 2006 So the details are this: Jim's address which he is moving out of: 7118 SE Boise, Portland. (@ 4-6 blocks south of Powell off 72nd ave) Meet @ 6:00 pm after work WEDNESDAY -TOMMORROW 7/26/06 at Jims house. You want to get there earlier and help organize thats great too. Joseph says he's renting the U-haul, probably since the "helping Jim to move" thing was his idea , I'll bring beer since I was trying to shirk out of doing anything but Jim needs the assist from me and as many as he can get. Kev, looks like another opprotunity to move wood! Who's in for this? We could use everyone to make it easier. Quote
John Frieh Posted July 25, 2006 Posted July 25, 2006 Will do my best... I can't leave work till 5 pm so it will be close. I have a if it helps... Quote
JosephH Posted July 26, 2006 Author Posted July 26, 2006 Yep, the UHAUL truck is lined up and ready to go though any other trucks will make it happen that much quicker. Jim even went over today to make sure the new digs will accomodate his state library (it's going to be close he says). Bryan and Mark, swing by if you're up and finished climbing... Quote
billcoe Posted July 26, 2006 Posted July 26, 2006 Super, all we need now is people. I understand Jim has gotten lots of it already, so maybe we'll mostly just be drink beer. Quote
markd Posted July 26, 2006 Posted July 26, 2006 i just got off the phone with jim o. sounds like stewart and i will be there as well. stewart is actually there right now doing yard work for him. it will be good to put faces to the names of some of you. Quote
ivan Posted July 26, 2006 Posted July 26, 2006 will try to show - inlaws flying into 2night - a strong motivator to getout of the house! Quote
bwrts Posted July 26, 2006 Posted July 26, 2006 Did anyone give Kohler a call; he has a truck but his back kinda hurts these days... Quote
JosephH Posted July 27, 2006 Author Posted July 27, 2006 Many thanks to Phillip, Bill, Jamie, and Bruce for helping move the last big load of stuff tonight. More thanks to Kevin for moving loads to free up the garage, and a special big, big thanks is due to John Stewart for days of helping Jim out and having him and his crew kick it on Jim's yardwork that needed to get done before the end of the month - a monster job and the yard now looks great. He's basically out of there and into new digs. Jim will be back out at Beacon all the sooner for everyone pitching in and helping him out - and that's a good thing... Quote
billcoe Posted July 27, 2006 Posted July 27, 2006 Joseph, you get the biggest pat on the back for: 1) thinking to put it on the internet. 2) paying for the U-Haul from your own pocket. Great hanging with you all. Quote
JosephH Posted July 27, 2006 Author Posted July 27, 2006 OH! And to Bill for buying the beer - great selection too by the way... Quote
