No we are not moving... At least not for several more years. I need to get several more years of work experience before I will become more "marketable" up in Austin. Real hard to get a <good> paying programming/database admin. position up there without a lot of experience. If we are moving to a rural area, it will be in the hill country somewhere. Gotta have a house with a garage, and a big shop... ;-) > > Eric you'll moving back? > > > > > > Cajun Eskimo > Christopher Dirksen > From: "Eric Woodall" > Reply-To: tcb@xxxxxxxxxxxxx > To: tcb@xxxxxxxxxxxxx > Subject: [tcb] Re: hershey is fixed > Date: Thu, 11 Jan 2007 10:14:43 -0600 (CST) >>Jeff, where on the west side do you live? >>We are looking at property in the Dripping Springs area... >> >> >> > I am in Austin, my office is in South Austin and I live in West >> Austin. >> > >> > >> > ----- Original Message ---- >> > From: Eric Woodall >> > To: tcb@xxxxxxxxxxxxx >> > Sent: Thursday, January 11, 2007 10:04:24 AM >> > Subject: [tcb] Re: hershey is fixed >> > >> > >> > Mark, Jeff is in Austin. >> > >> >> Jeff, Where are you located at?? >> >> >> >> ATX BUS wrote: Brian and fellow TCBers >> >> >> >> I will be pulling my engine soon to install a new gas tank.
