Tree House Swings To Another Borough

“...Staten Island?


Yes, as of November 1, 2003, we will be saying so long to the Park Slope community of Brooklyn and saying howdy to Rosebank, a section of Staten Island right at the foot of the Verrazano Narrows Bridge. We found a four bedroom house and we are going to occupy it with the additon of Mama Tree, who is elated at the prospect of not living alone anymore. Good thing is, we will now have ample room and a large backyard. we can also accomodate more TTers!”

“I'm packin' my tent, brother!”

“and mapes can get a bigger kayak! ;)”

“C'mon up, Tom! We still are close enough to Manhattan to enjoy all the city has to offer too!”

“Hey Stomp! You are a hell of a comedian!”

“The devil in me had to be let out!
Hee Hee.
I bet maple will agree!”

“did ya here it has a HUGE backyard???”

“new stomping grounds will Be PA nad NJ”

“Moving sucks, but here's to hoping you have a smooth one!”

“Don't they have fairies there? Oh wait, that's the Village..

Congrats. I must also say that it is great that Ma Tree is moving in too.”

“"new stomping grounds will Be PA nad NJ"

"stomping"....."nad"....ouch!!!”

“I feel sorry for PA and NJ....with you stomping their 'nads and all...”

“more like nad stomping!!”

“Dang mapleleaf, no "www.biteone.com"?”

“Hey that's great news (except for my nads)! Keep moving closer to me and we're bound to meet-up sometime.”

“Dang mapleleaf, no "www.biteone.com"?"

no that would have been www.butthead.com”

“Aahhhh, how stoopid of me :]”

“Congratulations, Tree People! But you will still be Islanders. When are you going to migrate to Terra Firma where you started out? So a big backyard means a lawnmower, shovels, rakes, wheelbarrows, and the eastern relatives of Psycho Squirrel.”

“sad to say no trees ;(

but that means gardens!!”

“Shovels, rakes and implements of destruction......”

“Remember Tom. One big pile is better than two little piles!”

“Hey hey!”

“Hey, congrats, that is exciting!

(Maple, you have mail...)”

“yeah!!!!!! i have mail cool beans!!”

“....without the Tree family. Will there be a fond farewell party? And how do the younger Trees feel about this exodus? Anyhow....happy moving girls and boys....”

“Thanks, Stratus! We all really love the neighborhood we live in (except maybe Maple). So, naturally, we will miss it. My scout troop is located there and my son is in it, so we won't be losing touch completely. But, hey! Ya gotta move on...”

“Fritz you have mail


stratusloop.

twignut loves it. just to have her own room makes her a very happy girl.

the little one? not to happy. he has both of his best frineds in his class this year. so with this move, it means a new school.
but we reminded him that he will still see his friends every week for the boy scout meetings. which i am happy to say we will be able to keep up :)
then i told them we can paint there rooms any way they want. all i heard was something about black and green @@
but hey if it makes them happy, then my job is done. plus brooklyn is right across the bridge.
so its a good move.

ps, we are renting not buying. sorry if this is was not said before.”

“just an update.
we move on Nov 1st. we got the house(to rent) treebeard will get his Bar.

TT invites will be sent out after the new year.





(sorry about being a bytch yesturday)”

“So, is this the Staten Island one?”

“Congrats, in any case.”

“yes, a different one. not as big but it will be home.”

“Moving to Satan Island?”

“hwo lnog hsa dsylxeia bene a porblem Tmo?”

“Could be worse; could be Fire Island...”

“Satan island?
Skeery!”

“Could be Gilligan's Island!”

“Oh great, another non-backpacking thread. Do you tree people have no shame??? Will BB #&%!$ his drawers??? Will OPIE have apoplexy and marry Miss OPIE in a fit of delirium??? Will Baume66 dress in drag and start posting to backpacker.com??? Stay tuned for another episode of 'As Your Stomach Turns'...”

“FG, first, it's a recycled thread.

Second, no, we have no shame!”

“Come on MS Pottymouth, you can say it!
#&%!$! ;)”

“FG are you just jealous that treebeard has a built in Bar?”

“I certainly am...”

Now that you mention it, yes.”

“thats ok FG. have no fear you will get an invite I promise!”

“With all that room I vote that the TreeHouse become the site for TC4!...all in favor?!!...say AYE!”

“I know this had nothing to do with backpacking, but its a big deal to our family. sometimes when a big deal does happen you want to share with your friends (yes, i consider some of you buttheads my friends). there are just to many to email. that is why i started this thread.”

“congratulations, buttheads! :-)”

“mapleleaf-with the different house on Staten Island and all...will you still have the big back yard you wanted?”

“no (head hung down)


but it does have a nice yard. i am hoping that next spring i can start a small herb garden or something like that.”

“I for one am shocked that Maple would post that she intends to grow herb at her new house.

What will the neighbors think? ;-)”

“Depends on whether we share or not! :)”
