Taxesand paint.

For the records I am enjoying the tedious nature of our tax system. The records for this project are a nightmare.

Never the less I was working on the taxes and was humored to note that we spent $892 in paint. This is pretty impressive considering that more than half the paint was mis-tints.

New Projects

Hi friends, I am not sure that you know but we have purchased another great project. This one is a 1890's four square in Ashland. It has a Tonne of work to do, but should be great when finished. Amoung other things; roof, foundation, windows, interior, plumbing, electrical.. Anything other than burning it down and starting over, I am noy sure.

An Offer has been accepted.

I want to thank all of you who have spent time visiting. I especially appreciate those friends and acquaintances of Victor Anderson who shared stories about life in the 50's and the former Governor.

I am glad to say that we have received and accepted an offer on the house which gets the job done. We are hoping to close around the 15th of June.

Thanks again for all the encouragement in this project. We have worked hard to breath new life into this house and I am really pleased with what we accomplished. This is a very usable and historically fascinating house and I think it will serve the new owners well.

Here's the front-ish sides of the house -- views from Havelock and from 65th street (since it's on the corner).
