The For Sale sign went up Feb 7th. Look here for the listing. We have only had 1 looker so far.
We are still working on packing and eliminating stuff. We rented a storage unit and it is about 2/3rds full.

Auction Day
Today was auction day. We decided to attend and watch. It was very entertaining and our stuff sold well. You just never know what folks will want. The auctioneer seemed to do a good job of grouping items into lots where he felt it would bring more money.
Not everything we took to the auction house was on sale this auction. He will be having another in a couple of weeks and the remainder of our stuff will be in that auction.
We didn't feel any sellers remorse.
Moving forward.

Sign's UP
Today we met with our Realtor and signed the papers, measured the rooms, took pictures and put up the For Sale sign.
We had taken 5 pickup truck and 2 car loads of things to the auction house in January. We also rented a 10x15 storage unit, as a special we get first 2 month free, and since I am over the age I get a 5% discount on the monthly storage fee starting with our first payment in April.
We have taken a lot of stuff that we plan to keep to the unit, valuables and firearms have been taken to a friend who has a big safe with extra room. All of our items in the safe are identified with us as the owner along with our contact information.
Still cleaning out the workshop and I plan to keep the power tools. Some of the fixtures I had made will be given away to our friends here. I will make new ones when I need them.
We will be continuing to organize things and make decisions on which items we have left that will go in the next auction. More decisions.
