LaGrange, Hinsdale, whatever.

Pete's hockey coach, Anders, is close family friends with Mike Nylander (both from Sweden) who used to play for the Blackhawks, but last season signed a 4 year contract with the Capitals. Mike rented out his house in Hinsdale, but the renters were leaving this month. It was going to be empty so he wanted Anders to move into it at no cost, which meant that Anders' house was going to be available to rent. We were going to move into Anders' place in LaGrange next month, but Mike found a new renter for his BIG place in Hinsdale. Sooooo, Anders and his family are staying put and we had to do a last minute scramble to find a place to move into. Craig's List to the rescue. I found a 4 bedroom place in Hinsdale with a huge yard at a reasonable price and a great landlord who is letting us sign a 2 year lease that we can renew for another 2 years after that. We're supposed to sign the lease on Wednesday. Once that's done we can register the kids for school and I can send out the new address to everyone.

Oh yeah, the other news is that the tenants for our Crystal lake house signed the lease yesterday and we're supposed to get it back from them today.

So, once again it all appears to be working out just as it's meant to be. Anyone want to help us move in mid-June??!!
