Big News

Yesterday morning we went into contract for a rather choice (I know who uses that outdated word anymore) 1.93 acres in Mechanicsburg. No drainage problems, fantastic neighbors, and great property values (read as no clampetts nearby.) It's very close to Mom and Dad's--like we will have the same street address. We'll be able to overlook this awesome little valley and one side of the property is already fenced in. I know there is a way to post pictures on this blog and I will figure it out and use this site as the construction album. We are still deciding between unibilt, and a local contractor so depending on how things go we hope to be in by Christmas but that might be a bit naive we will see. Amidst all these new beginnings we had an ending on Tuesday. Chubby has passed away for greener catnip patches and is buried underneath a large stone near the pond. Andrew promises that once the house is built we can adopt a little orange kitty. More later and pictures maybe as early as next week. Even though I am finally feeling better, I doubt I will be emailing much in the future so make this your spot to find out what is up with us. We miss you! Julie
