Still have a few more items to add to one of the shelves, including that Ohtani bobblehead coming soon. 

Thinking about getting this for the other corner in my office. 

Also, thanks to @Jeff Fletcher for the bobbleheads. I wish I kept all the ones I had over the years but I gave most of them away because I had no room for them at the old house in WA. 

 

Great setup!

A friend from my college years moved to the Nashville area from Ohio, reconnected with him when he visited here about a year ago. He first moved there to take a job in a law firm, now retired. He and his wife love Tennessee. Too many Vol fans to suit me, but they come with the place.

Welcome to the neighborhood, Chuck!  What part of Tennessee are you in?  I moved from Las Vegas to Lexington, KY about 6 years ago.  About 3 hours from here to Nashville and my daughter is attending college in Memphis.  We might need to take in a Nashville Sounds game together someday.

I’m also in Lexington area, actually Georgetown, but if there’s ever a get together, I would be down! 
 

Have plenty of bourbon too, just picked up 4 bottles of Woodford’s Double Double Oaked this past week for the annual release.

Congrats on the new home Chuck.

What are you doing there, working from home?

I'm working on it. I already got myself a new truck and some cowboy boots.

@Bluegrass_HaloFan first off, welcome to AngelsWin.com. 

Secondly, that sounds like a great idea of a Southern website event. We've done them in Arizona for years during Spring Training. Under the Big A in So. Cal, in Washington State on a River Float. Why not here in the great south? 

Lastly, that Double Double Oaked Woodford Reserve sounds amazing. 

Besides @Make Angels Great Again, @Capital_Dave @ScruffytheJanitor and yourself, who else is in or close to Tennessee? @AngelsFaninGA? Would love to plan something for the summer.

Thanks dude. 

Since Covid my position became 100% remote. I'm a Senior Solutions Engineer for a software company based in Vancouver, CA. There's a bunch of US remote employees that are spread around the country though, despite the company's home base in Canada. 

We used to have a nice office in Seattle that was on Pier 55. Great views of the water & sunsets.

But man, I love working from home. It would be weird to have to go into an office again. Though I do miss in person watercooler talk and bouncing stuff of colleagues in person.

Out of all that (which is all great) the part that stood out was "a couple of australian shepherd dogs"

 

Getting mine in a few weeks. Great dogs

Sweet dogs. Just got one a month ago. Now I get to say welcome to TN!

 

I lost my dog of just four years old (Archie) my Anatolian Shepherd this fall and it was devastating. I'm still not over it.

I love Australian Shepherds. We raised them growing up. Had blue merls and black tri's. Bud a black tri was the best dog I ever had. He was human like and just encompassed everything you'd want in a companion, best friend of man. 

I'd like to get a brother and sister Aussie to start with here.

Thanks, @Chuckster70! Long time listener, first time caller so to speak. Been reading this forum for years, but the thought of having some bourbon and a get together with some southern Angels fans was enough to get me to finally sign up. 
 

Your first pour is on me. This year’s bottle is something special.

I’m in Roswell GA, driving distance I’m sure.

Congrats Chuck... everything is well deserved... and may you have continued goodness forever and ever!

[Catwhoshatinthehat]

Congrats Chuck good looking office and a beautiful house on a nice piece of land.  Seeing others make a move like that and what they get in other parts of the country incentivizes me to want to do the same some day.  Enjoy.

If you know where the Gardenside Baptist Church is, I’ve sung there a couple of times. Fantastic people there.

Thanks on the truck. Love it! 

The picture of the boots doesn’t do it justice. They look really nice in person and the boot cut jeans cover the ripped flag. But I mostly loves these boots because they are wide fit and super comfortable. Equipped with zero gravity air control for a little extra bounce in your step too.

Yeah, just giving you a hard time. I'm just not a boot guy. 

Congrats on the big move. Hope you and the family really enjoy it there.

Looks nice. I don't think I could ever leave the weather here in Orange County, CA. That and the fact the Angels are 15 min away. Pretty much all of my family lives on the east coast but I just don't like the weather there with the snow and constant hurricanes but millions and millions of people are okay with it so I'm the weird one to them. As of now, I don't ever see myself leaving this state. It's kind of funny, so many people dream of even visiting California and yet we have people that live here and leave and act like the state kicked their puppy. I wonder how many members here over the years will also leave California. At least Chuck has a cool theme song for his state:

 

[Second Base]

If not for my little bubble in rural NorCal where the mandates aren't supported, enforced or acknowledged, then I would join you. 

It makes me smile that you found your slice of freedom.  I pray everyone here can find theirs, if they want it.
