Kenny B Posted July 24, 2019 Share Posted July 24, 2019 My wife and I moved into our house in 2004. It's not very big; just right for the two of us. It was owned by our neighbor next door, and we leased it for a year while we were looking for a house. He had bought it for his mother-in-law, but she passed away before she moved in. After our year lease was top, he asked if we wanted to buy it. At least we wouldn't have to move!! Fast forward 15 years... my wife is selling her business and has a lot of "stuff" stored in her office building. We have to move it, so we were thinking about a bigger house. Last week, we were talking to our neighbor and he is selling his house to his son who lives in AZ. It's big; too big for him now that his wife passed away. He asked us if we are moving; he might want to buy back our house and move into it. How odd is that? He and his son stopped by tonight to look at it. Seems interested, but if he wants it, thence will have to find another place to love and it's a seller's market. Prices are through the roof!!! Maybe we should move elsewhere??? cnosil, tony@CIC, Rickp and 2 others 5 Quote “We don’t stop playing the game because we get old; we get old because we stop playing the game.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you like where you are you could store your wife’s items in storage or if there’s room build a decent storage shed. Of course you guys may want a new adventure and move in to a new home.

sixcat Posted July 24, 2019 Share Posted July 24, 2019 Very interesting listening to Geoff Ogilvy on the most recent Fried Egg podcast with Andy Johnson. Ogilvy seems like such an intelligent and thoughtful person. He was explaining in great detail, how sponsorship affects everything the PGA Tour does. That isn't anything we didn't already suspect but the detail is fascinating. Essentially, the PGA Tour can't do what they would like to do because of jealousy, envy and rivalry of competing sponsors. It's a fascinating listen for anyone interested. The first 45 minutes is about the Schauffele-Callaway driver issue. The final half hour is the good stuff!

We go to AZ occasionally during the winter but only for a couple of weeks since my wife was still working, but since she has sold her business we can now change our plans. Her brother moved to AZ last year. A permanent move to AZ would be inconvenient at this time. The biggest issue preventing us moving there is that my dad is still living in Oregon, about 300 miles away in an assisted living facility. He's 88 and "... not moving anywhere!..." I'm not moving back to the wet side of Oregon either!! I didn't like it before I took up golf; certainly not now. I could be tempted to move to Bend, OR but houses are expensive there too and high taxes.

I knew Tiger won The Memorial three years in a row from 1999-2001. What I didn’t realize, when he lifted the trophy in 2001, Tiger had made 38 professional starts since winning The Memorial in 1999.
