Also, quite unexpectedly, a man from Mt. Forest walked in saying how much he had always admired my building, and asked if I would consider selling it. I told him what I had been told what its value was, which was higher than I had thought, and he just stuck out his hand and said "I'm comfortable with that and you can keep the North end back section (1750 sq. ft, for the next 5 years so that you will have a space for your cars and personals." And he bought my building. Simple as that! The deal closes in October, 2024.

​

In the meantime, we have been packing stuff, throwing out stuff, selling off stuff and donating tons of material to local charities St. Vincent de Paul and Habitat for Humanity.

​​

An auction is scheduled with Kidd auction company that culminates Nov. 8, 2024. It will feature a large auction remaining collectibles including a good selection of toys.
