Are you leaving the "great" state of Illinois? I live in McHenry County, and know more than a few that have flown the coop.

Moving - but not the periodicals.
BWJ - Fall '09 to Fall '18 - missing Summer 15 and Spring 18
Backpacking - 3/14 to 1/19 , missing 7&11/14; 2,3,7,13/15; 1,2,7,12/16; 2,7,12/17; 1,2,7,8,9,12/18 BUT they only publish 10 a year so 2 missing each year are not.
Off topic bonus - I'm sure a few of you might be interested
Journal of Light Construction (including some of New England Builder - JLC before it changed it's name): First issue in collection is Volume 5, Issue 5 dated Febuary ‘87. Missing July of 2008 to February of 2010. Last issue in collection is Volume 31, issue 2 dated November ‘12. All in great overall condition. Some tears or stains.
Lastly, Fine Homebuilding - all of them from no. 1 to no. 218
Also some Old House Journals and This Old House.
Not sure when house will sell - probably not before May or June - so I can hang onto them till then. Don't want to landfill. Probably could bring to Canoecopia. Would love to have you stop by.

I'd love to take everything related to home repair. We just bought an old Bungalow and it's a fixer-upper for sure. I'm in North Chicago and could come by sometime in the next couple weeks if that works. Thanks Bill.

You moving to MO? I know another BWCA.com member whom is retiring and doing the same?

That's funny - I don't think I've ever heard someone say the taxes were cheaper in NY! Welcome! It's a great state for outdoor activities and exploration.

You've not heard from many in Illinois.

Congratulations. I look forward when I can make the escape as well. :)

I have to put this on a short hold while I finish packing for Movers on Monday. Overwhelmed. I have several emails expressing interest in BWJ. I'll go through them in order. Thank you all for interest and patience.
