HOUSE FOR RENT

Dear sisters, Becky Good/ the bodamers sent this information. If you know of anyone looking for a really nice home in a good area let me know or contact her right away. If you would like to drive by the house to see it from the outside it is at 904 Fairoaks in Champaign, il. Just west of Duncan and Williams street it is in a clean nice area. I have a house available for rent, if anyone is interested or knows anyone interest please have them call me at: 217-369-0541 or e-mail me: good1452@comcast.net.7 bedroom, 3 full bath - completely remodeled and updated. Hardwood floors throughout, bathrooms are tiled, and jacuzzi tub in one bathroom. Fireplace and central air. The basement is finished with 2 bedrooms, 1 full bath, living room, and a kitchen and laundry room so it could be used as an "apartment" which would be ideal for roommates and splitting the rent. Landscaped yard with a beautiful coi pond, deck in the front and back, huge kids play structure and poured slab for a pool. 2 car attached garage, and some of the best neighbors in Champaign. It really is a one of a kind house and has a lot of extras and upgrades. The house will be availableJanuary 1st, but you can come and look at it anytime before then. Monthly rent is $1650. I am stressing trying to do this from Washington. Our original tennants signed a 5 year lease with the intent to buy by the end of the lease so I was not prepared for this! If anyone can help out by getting the word out there and helping us to find new tennants that would be awesome!! :) Thanks!!

Water Storage Drums

Hey guys,

I want to buy some water storage drums (like 55 gallon ones) and maybe other emergency preparedness items. Anyone know where I can buy the drums? Is there somewhere nearby, or do you have any online companies to recommend?

You can reply in the comments, so others can benefit from the information, or you can email me directly. Thanks.
