Congrats on the daughter deal.. the day will be here sooner than you think. Keeping stuff is either a personal or city demand thing..:) You'll find a place, or something 30-50 mi away If people are friendly, they don't explode into abuse at the flash of a light. Enjoy the quiet, LOL And the wine <G> J _____ From: elky-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:elky-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of stillfranksfault@xxxxxxx Sent: Friday, January 01, 2010 4:28 PM To: elky@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [elky] update Hey ya-all, LOL I'm getting use to that, everybody says it here. Well, we had a disappointing day yesterday, the house we were ready to place a bid on had started negotiations with another buyer. So to prevent over bidding in a price war we decided to walk away from it. We went back to take a second look at our second choice, and we found water in the basement. D'OH We spent New Years eve in the hotel room with .................... a bottle of wine. :-) <http://o.aolcdn.com/cdn.webmail.aol.com/resources/core/images/smile.png> Today we did a few drive bys in a new area, and will be looking at a few homes with our Realtor tomorrow Saturday. There are nice homes out there, but ................it seams to be the surroundings that knocks it out . Some have a nice view, but are next to Sandford & son. I have driven past houses that look as if they haven't let go of anything since they were three. What's up with that? Miss everyone, my couch, my PC. Lovin the mountains, fresh air, friendly people. We haven't heard a car horn since NY. I actually waited after a traffic light turned green, and no one beeped. Truly amazing. Maybe their horns don't work. LOL Later.
