Wow i remember the thread 3 years ago.. It is crazy on how fast time has flown by! Glad to see you guys are doing well and have a beautiful new home! Loved the video, definitely put things into perspective like you said man.. Me and my family have been going through a lot of health/financial related things lately and seeing this video got me to realize some things. Sure we are suffering from some hardships, but dang we still have a roof over our heads!

Nice update Don!

I just read through ALL the threads... EVERY page! Probably over 2000 total posts or something! (didn't get much done at work today) haha

I just want to say again how happy I am for you and your family that you're back in your home! Its incredible how much has gone on and how much this forum (among others) helped you out! I only wish I was a member then because I would have DEFINITELY contributed to help you out! I'm not too much farther north than you, and (I know you've heard this before) but if you ever need help with ANYTHING - let me know! I'd gladly take the drive down to lend a hand!

Continued success in the new house! Hope to finally meet you at the track soon! (PSCA in Nov?)

Thanks, Ed. We'll see if we can get some sort of party together in the spring.

Oh, and I don't think that anyone here is going to let you forget the party - even 3 years later.

Oh, and BUY THE LIFT!!! :deadhorse::deadhorse:

Great video. 3 years......time really flies, and it seems the older you get, the faster it goes.

Obviously I know given a choice no one would want to go through this, but I can't imagine a better result from complete destruction. Glad in the end everything worked out.
