Soon to be in AZ, can't wait!

Postby hailpurdue » Tue Apr 15, 2008 11:28 am

Good morning everyone!
I am relocating to Mesa in exactly 52 days, 9 hours....
Looking to join up with you all and have a good time.
Currently in Massachussets, and love hanging with the mini clubs around here.

Anyway, I just wanted to introduce myself:
My name is Steve
I'm 29 years young
Just got divorced
Getting out of the snow once and for all
I love College Football (So anyone who goes to ASU or UA games, I'm in!), long walks on the beach (just kidding, long drives on the beach maybe).....

As for my credentials... Here's Darby:

Can't wait to meet you all and start motoring!

Welcome! I got to hang out with the local Mass. Motoring Club back in Boston in January. Got to know Peter (Greasy) and his wife Audra. Do you know them?

Absolutely Pete & Audra live about 5 minutes away from me. If you go to my phot webiste http://stevenschmitz.smugmug.com There are some pictures of various mini outings from last summer, Audra's Mini is PW with Red Stripes, and Pete's is SS with checked stripes. They're lots of fun. As for what brings me out, it's the lack of snow, the cost of living, the lack of snow, the people are nice, the lack of snow, and Darby will have streets to play on. Also, did I mention the lack of snow? Plus, it's some place that my ex-wife will never come to, so I'm good there.

Looking forward to meeting all of you, I've been jealously reading all of the AMVIV posts, and I can safely say I'll be joining you all for that next year!
44 days until I leave, 51 days until I arrive in Phoenix!

Welcome Steve. Be careful this club is filled with happy divorced people who are enjoying every minute of it! Okay maybe I am speaking for myself. Just moved down here in Sept. So I missed the snow in Utah and it was freakin awesome-- NO snow here!

WELCOME
