    Default It's been fun North metro crew...

    ....but we are moving to Littleton. After some fairly significant life changes, we are in a position where we really need to buckle down and cut out some expenses. Daycare has gotten to the point where it's cheaper for my wife to stay home with the kids than work, so between that and the 50 miles a day we each spend in fuel cost, it only makes sense. I'll be going from 25 miles one way to 6 miles one way, and she'll only be driving as needed, along with our rent going down by $200 a month.

    We will be off of Federal between Bowles and Belleview, so right by the Platte and downtown Littleton. I know the area can be sketchy (Essex motel), but it can't be much worse than 104th and Washington. I know the area has a lot going for it, so I'm excited about that, but definitely not looking forward to the actual moving part. At least I'm going to be closer to RFB, Ark, and Damage factory.

    Good luck with everything, I had to do something similar about three years ago.

    I'm just to the east of that area by 10 minutes, big fan of old downtown Littleton. Hope everything works for you guys.

    Sounds like you need to get to work on the MrMoneyMustache blog. Good luck with the move.

    When you move, just get one Big Azz rental truck and make only one trip. It is much easier than making multiple trips with pickup trucks.

    You'll like it down here, and you're not to far from the Dietz memorial and the South site for plinking. Short hop to the Springs and some good gun shops this way.

    Welcome!
