I intended to publish this post several weeks ago, but things have been extraordinarily busy. There's no particular value in subjecting you to the mundane details behind the posting delay, and we have not yet fully unpacked, but let me share a few pictures of the new house,
now that we have finally moved from Calgary to Edmonton (well, to St. Albert, more precisely).

Everyone's settling in nicely, the kids are enjoying their new schools, making friends, and looking forward to Halloween. Now comes the hard part, making gamers of our neighbors!
Congrats on the move. Good to hear from you again, and I'm looking forward to reading more gaming posts now that you're settled in.
ReplyDeleteThanks! It may be several weeks before i'm back to a regular blogging schedule, as i'm still getting my new-job legs.

ReplyDeleteWow! Think of the naval battles you can have in that tub.
I never should have passed on those naval battle kickstarters.
Duncan here! Da't tub! The house is Q. You better be at the lake next year.
ReplyDeleteWe will be there Dunc.
ReplyDeleteWe'll bring the DnD materials.

Great looking digs, Aaron! Congratulations.
ReplyDeleteThanks, I credit my wife, who fell in love with the place at first sight
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your new house, Aaron! Looking for a cozy house like this needs extra effort and a great list. Did you work with a broker? If so, I commend him/her for doing a good job presenting you this house. Enjoy your new house! :)

I didn't see a game room or a dedicated Hirst Arts casting work-shop. ;)
ReplyDeleteIt must be nice to finally be settled in. I hate and dread moving.

Those are the other half of the basement and the garage, respectively!
It's nice to have only one lawn to mow, instead of three (I also had a rental in Edmonton while we were trying to find a permanent place).
Nice house! Welcome to Edmonton, I've been living here for a year and a half now and it's all good. More of us OSR gamers in Edmonton now. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks. I'm liking Edmonton, although I'm only seeing the northwest corner at the moment, as thinks have been too busy for a proper explore. I have checked out a gaming club on stony plain road, but it was mostly new school gamers.
ReplyDeleteLooks great!
ReplyDeleteNow where are the photos of your array of snow shovels/blowers? ;)
