Adding the can lights. Using a string is quite effective. Also notice we boxed in the piping running down. We also filled that with insulation so you don't hear toilet water in your kitchen while you cook. Cost a whopping $20 in insulation to never hear toilet water. Believe it or not new builds don't even consider this option. That's why you hear water running in areas of your house you would rather not. </div>

We built this space to be as friendly as possible for guests. The galley is over 4 and 1/2 feet wide which is enough to hang out and not feel squeezed. The knives on the wall say we are a no play kitchen - we mean business about out cooking. Pot rack is our favorite piece and super easy to maintain. The bar is a bit taller than standard to keep the kids from reaching over to the hot stove while they eat breakfast. </div>

Funny story. We thought the inlay tile would be the same thickness as the subway once we laid it on the wall - nope. So we put a rope boarder around the inlay to hide the difference. I really love how it turned out. </div>

Still need to put the crystals on the chandelier. The one that is hanging is a test to see how much we will hit our heads. I hate pulling up a chandelier with all the crystals on it. Radiator on the wall and the marble toilet base are big highlights that contrast the restoration of the marble and the modern sleek look. LOVE the exposed brick and massive shower. The soaker tub is worth its weight - and it is heavy! </div>

So I'm from the south. We need air conditioning. We installed 2 of them. One even sits on our roof to save on the copper line we had to run. That was a fun day lifting that up two floors. Combined with our insulation we should be in great shape in the coming years. </div>

Well it can't be a house that I live in without some cool gadgets. We have two Nest thermostat systems that control the two HVAC units (basement and first floor, second and third floor). This lowers our bill by almost 60% compared to just running the units on their own. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We don't have keys. Everything is digital. It requires codes to get in and the whole system is controlled by a central hub. I unlock my house, turn on the AC and turn on my lights from the corner as I pull up by simply hitting a button on my phone. At night I can check all 6 entrances to the house to make sure they are locked and send a command to them if they are not. If you think this is expensive it's not. The discount on my insurance alone pays for the monthly monitoring fee.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Oh and if someone breaks in and smashes my panel, the cellular component sends a signal to the police immediately. I don't know how else to control a house this big. </div>

I could spend a lot of time talking about the process of redoing and restoring the exterior. I can say this much, we scrapped as much of the paint off and used a superior product by Sherwin Williams called peal bond to seal the house and essentially "glue" the remaining paint to the house so it will never chip. 2 tops coats later and we should have a 30 year paint job.</div>

Dead rats and other things that don't need to be mentioned existed behind that fridge. We discovered it was a non-load bearing structure so that had to go too. I love an open concept! </div>

The ceiling was so rotted that it needed to be completely removed. We also spent a week pulling up every nail we could find in that floor. In doing some of the early demo we found the brick to be in good shape so we went after that too!<br />

We also found a hidden door. This would have been a door directly to the second floor back stairs at one time. It was sealed over and hidden behind the wall. Amazingly the door is in great shape and can be used on another project. #saveeverything</div>

After taking up the carpet we found the subfloor. I thought about keeping and using it as the base but the house leveling that needs to happen will require us to take much of this floor up and the gaps are too big. New floor here as well. In doing research we discovered this was an amazing parquet floor. We will try to bring back some magic here! </div>

</div>
<br />
Note: this update was produced via Siri on my iPhone. All grammatical mistakes I blame on her. When I get back home and in front of my computer I will make the necessary edits.<br />
<br />
Demolition is almost complete so I believe it's time for an update. We were rather disappointed that we couldn't keep as much of the plaster as we originally intended. The plaster itself is original horsehair but has sustained massive water damage over the years from neglect by previous owners. It was discovered that water was running down the exterior walls from the roof. This was caused by poor maintenance of the box gutters and a poor roof installation. This resulted in Woodroad of two corner beams that had cause the house to settle about three quarters of an inch. After an engineers report, the good news is the foundation is in excellent shape. The wood can easily be replaced and the house brought back to its original level.<br />
<br />
Because of the extensive damage to the exterior wall plaster, most of it had to be removed. The advantage to us is we get to insulate the entire house to improve its energy efficiency. Because we have access to both the roof now and the exterior walls, we can insulate the home far above local code. We have opted to go with blown in insulation as we can fill cavities that are hidden without disturbing the original structure and interior wall plaster that remains. Blown in insulation combined with a quality vapor barrier should give us R 60 in the attic and R20- 29 in the walls. We gain extra space in the walls because the walls themselves are original 2" x 4" instead of the modern framing which shorts almost a half-inch. This is a no expense we weren't planning on but it will pay for itself easily in two years as the heating bill for the house is quite expensive due to massive heat loss.<br />
<br />
The other expense we weren't planning on was replacing the entire roof. During the initial inspection before we closed, we were given a report that the roof had new shingles and was in good condition. unfortunately he didn't look close enough to see that the drippage was installed incorrectly and that the box gutters were not being channeled properly. Inspector came highly recommended so it just goes to show you that an inspection alone cannot identify all the potential issues with a new purchase. I normally never get an inspection but my experience with stone foundations is about zero and that was my biggest concern before the purchase. The great news is that because the foundation is in such good shape I can take the money that I set aside for those repairs and apply it to the roof. We are also going to replace most of the shingles with a particular type of siding that will restore the original look to the third floor while the composite material will give it a 30 year life.<br />
<br />
When we opened up the third-floor ceiling we realize that it was vastly under insulated. R19 for an attic ceiling during the winter is almost worthless. It was also installed incorrectly which allowed air to pass on either side of the insulation making it only 25% effective at best. The good news is we can reuse this insulation in both the basement and in him walls throughout the first and second floor that have limited batt insulation currently.<br />
<br />
Electrical and plumbing<br />
Everything is getting torn out. We discovered galvanized pipe and lead pipe in the house. With children this is a major concern so we are completely re-plumbing the house all the way out to the main city line. In older homes even if you replace the interior plumbing, the line that runs to the street is usually a lead pipe. It also could be A copper line but for a period of time they use lead soldering which actually leaks into the water supply. To be safe we are just going to switch all of it out. We planned on redoing most of the plumbing so the additional expense of swapping out the mainline to the city is well worth avoiding the potential health risks.<br />
<br />
While the plumbing is getting redone we actually set up a temporary bathroom in the garage. Most construction sites order a plastic toilet but I'm not a fan of non hygienic conditions. I even splurged on two ply toilet paper.<br />
<br />
At this point we are waiting for the rewire and plumbing to take place over the next five days. Then there is the plumbing and electrical inspections. After those inspections we can insulate and begin closing in the walls. We have been able to get so much done quickly by running two different shifts. We have about a 12 man crew for first shift and day for man shift for second. This is enabled us to work from eight in the morning until 11 o'clock at night six days a week.<br />
<br />
Wood floors<br />
It appears that most of the wood flooring is salvageable. We could not save the floor in the parlor which has sustained damage from the settling of the house due to the water damage. This room and the back sunroom will need new flooring. I am keeping secret what we have planned for the parlor because I obtained some interesting multiple species wood that will hopefully bring back the grandeur of the floor that used to be one of the welcoming features of the house. We were able to save the floors in the kitchen, the back parlor, The first floor bathroom, and all of the front area of the house with the more intricate wood. Due to the damage from water leaks over time, we were unable to save the floor in the upstairs bathroom. We will however scavenge the wood that remains usable and bring it downstairs to repair slight damage to the first floor. We will also scavenge the parlor for quality pieces to repair the rest of the house. We are attempting to save and reuse as much as possible that exists in the house. Second-floor bathroom will get tile that looks like wood planks which will be both kid friendly and keep the intended style of the house in tact. We also saved the marble toilet bases and will continue to use those in the home and keeping with Mission to save everything possible.<br />
<br />
Outdoors<br />
<br />
<br />
We elected to excavate all around the foundation. Due to the continued nature of water leaking down the side of the foundation and eventually finding its way to the basement, we are going to seal up the foundation from the outside. This will also give us an opportunity to look at the exterior foundation to make sure there is not any damage that needs to be repaired. We don't anticipate anything major but if minor things are handled now they do not become major things later. In order to access the surrounding foundation we needed to get rid of most of the concrete that surrounds the house. The concrete was most likely put in around the 1940s or 50s. Most of it was poorly installed without rebar. This caused massive cracking in the concrete which was further exasperated by uncontrolled water run off. The freeze thaw cycle over the years has made most of the surfaces unrepairable. Also they are not original to the house. Due to the weather we could not finish the outdoor demolition this week but it should be completed in the next 48 hours. We will then rebuild the original porch as best as we can given the limited knowledge of what it looked like back in 1870. I've done some research based on a single historical picture of the house as it was decorated for independence day while it's still contain the original porch which actually ran the entire width of the house. We will not extend the porch to its original with but instead bring back the architectural detail in the columns, budget permitting. The concrete by the kitchen entrance will be removed and a wood landing will be built with appropriate railing. There is also several areas around the exterior that need to be replaced due to wood rot from uncontrolled water seepage and run off.<br />
<br />
Changes<br />
<br />
Anytime you have a renovation on a historical property you will always have changes because you never know what you find until you open the walls. In addition to the insulation we also discovered that the back wall of the first floor bathroom was actually used to bring in supplies through a barn style door. We also discovered a separate exterior door in the kitchen that was probably use that one time as a way for people to access the second floor directly from the outside. The home was originally built as an intended resort house for the rich and famous to come to the Westside at the turn-of-the-century but was never actually used for that purpose as the builder died just before was completed. It was then used as a family residence for generations. We are not sure when the door was sealed over because plaster was on the inside and the framing matches the kitchen door but is already there. It does not however contain a transom. We are going to remove the door and save it.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
When we demoed underneath the stairs we noticed there was ample space for both the refrigerator and additional shelving. I despise wasted space in the house so we are going to custom build shelving that will fit into the angle of the staircase. Potentially this could be a great spot to store dry goods or pots and pans. also in the kitchen we discovered a tremendous amount of space on the wall that was covered up by a false header that ran off the last 5 feet of the wall. This will enable us to have much more cabinet space that will be appropriate to the size of an 11 foot kitchen ceiling.<br />
<br />
For the time being we are going to leave the closet door open in our bathroom. Because of the space constraints traditional doors might not be an option. One of the possibilities could be bifold doors or even barn door style slides that we could mount some of the interior doors that we have salvaged. That way we can keep some of the interior doors and use them without buying newer cheaper hollow doors.<br />
<br />
We were not going to originally take out many of the rooms in the basement but because of the electrical rewire and the slight leveling of the house, we are removing and opening up most of the space. This will also allow us to put insulation in the basement and ready that space for finishing later.<br />
<br />
We are going to put a drop-down ladder access to the roof. As much as I don't want to add to the budget, having an open staircase going directly to the roof with younger children on the third floor is not advisable option.<br />
<br />
We decided to take all of the plaster off the break in the entire house. Having the exposed brick has really added to the aesthetic value and brings out the history of the home. Katie and I are debating about which ones to paint and seal and which ones to leave exposed only. We decided not to expose the break in the parlor as the molding is both original and the highlight of the room.<br />
<br />
We eliminated the tiny closet in The baby's room. We are going to put a standard closet that will be on the backside of the door. The skinny closet that was in the master bedroom we thought about eliminating all together We are relocating the door to the hallway and making it a linen closet. When the house was originally built there was not a need for larger modern closets as they are wardrobe<br />
was much smaller and the amount of clothing to hang was limited. Also these rooms were built for people to temporarily stay which would've meant only a handful of hooks and storage space. We plan to stay a little longer so we will need a bit larger space. This is why we are putting a massive closet in the master bathroom for us and each bedroom on the second floor will have sizable storage space.<br />
<br />
Now that we have more cabinet space in the kitchen, we are going to put two different sets of wall cabinets in. One set that would be used for utilitarian purposes and one set above it that will be used to display some of our favorite but fragile pieces.<br />
<br />
Originally we had planned on taking out the tile in the fireplaces. We had a local designer stop by the house and informed us that the tile is most likely original to the house. It is not my favorite color but we are not going to tear it out.<br />

So the side yard was an old swimming pool that was filled in with rocks and then soil. Sadly they didn't take all the concrete so that is now just sticking up like a waste pit. The steps (left in the photo) need to be removed and the ground re-sloped to allow for better drainage and aesthetics. </div>

We figure sometime in the 50s this was all put in. The drainage needs a complete overhaul and the concrete evacuated. The retaining wall needs a bit of help, to the dumpster that is. At one time you could tell this was a great entertain space. We need to bring back that welcoming space. </div>

The hope is that we can get all the concrete out of this area and truck in about 4 loads of top soil and make this area a morning garden and grassy entertainment area. I don't have a picture of the view over the field beyond the chain link fence but it is almost like living on the edge of the woods. Sadly the woods moved into the backyard here. Not sure who is living under the tarp but that has to go too. </div>

So we are going to replace this area with a massive entertaining deck where we can have a great morning breakfast watching the sun rise. It will also be a great spot to grill or just hang out. The house might need a coat of paint. Or 3. </div>

A little update on the progress:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The house is now cleaned out so the pictures with all the junk in them are no longer current. It only took two dumpsters and a week, but hey it takes time to get rid of 50 years of junk. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

This post we will attack the master bath which is connected via an interesting hallway to the master bedroom. </div>

This has been dubbed the "Hobbit" door which will get a massive makeover. We will eliminate the rounded top and have the trim match the rest of the house. The two doors and the bar are gone. Not sure exactly how to light this space or make it useful. I am not a fan of wasted space but this might just be a simple walkway that we can't do much about. </div>

The Master bedroom doesn't have any closet space so we need to fix that quickly. The door to the right in the above picture will be sealed off and give us more space to work with. Besides, I don't want the kids to have access to our private bathroom. We need at least one place of peace to take a bath :)</div>

Isn't that wall paper "special"? The door will be done and we will keep the trim. Because of the small hallway it didn't make much sense to have a single door. </div>

This will get sealed off and the door and window saved. We will use this door when we renovate the 3rd floor area so it will match the other two doors with widows. Lovin' that light switch. </div>

Another view of the room with a lovely sink that is getting relocated to the basement. The sealed doorway will be the right side of a massive closet that will take up the left wall in the picture.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Having a new wall will make the space smaller, but we have some creative ways of using the space. First the storage cabinets will actually go all the way to the sink giving each person a space of their own to get ready and their own doors and drawers. </div>

The toilet will then go on the section of the wall where the chimney used to be. The stand up shower will be put in the corner and enclosed in with glass. There is a clawfoot tub that we are moving from the hall bath into our master. </div>

The 3D program is a bit wonkey but this gives you an idea of what we are proposing. The walking gap between the counter and the tub is another foot after laser measurements were taken this week. It looks weirdly close in the picture. </div>

The closet doors will be a bit smaller as the toilet will stick out from the wall and keep the openings smaller. </div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
It will take a bit of custom fitting for the shower to make sure it can all fit so cross our fingers and hope for a few more inches here and there.<br />

So this is the front entry. Nice HUGE door that needs the glass repaired and replaced. That molding on the side of the stairs is hand done and is in great shape. The entry way is super wide and it is hard to get everything into a single shot. The top on the banister will have to be replaced and the stairs are in shaky shape. </div>

The second floor is just amazing with the winding wood that we will refinish and the stairs leading up to the third floor. The two rooms in the back are the two second floor bathrooms. You can also see in the distance the widows on top of the doors that were used to circulate air.<br />

Going up to the 2nd floor there is a bit of ceiling repair work to be done. The best part is the wooden molding that is still intact in the home that will be refinished and saved. There are a couple of spindles missing but they have them. </div>

This is an interesting room. This is peering out of the kitchen to the sun-room. It has a bathroom on the left and a weird closed in area that they used for a closet. They covered it in beadboard which doesn't make sense for the house as a whole. There is no other beadboard anywhere and it clashes with the high end wall paper on the walls. At least it has an overhead light. I forgot to see if it works. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
To the right is the main hall that leads to the front door. We will probably the closet a coat closet with a pantry since it is right next to the kitchen. </div>

We haven't even made it off the first floor yet and this room connects via a common wall to the parlor. It has an amazing amount of space and really good light with a door to the backyard. The wall paper is a toss up to keep (yea right) and the floors need new wood. This was on the addition side to the house so we aren't sure if under the plastic tile there would be hard wood flooring. This room needs insulation badly from underneath in the garage area so they just closed the door and called it the cold room. The radiator is also not working in here. #stufftofix</div>

The other really cool feature to this room is the original doors and handles that exist. The rooms also have a window above the door (not pictured) that you could use to vent air throughout the house while the doors are closed. At one time this house was an amazing engineering feat.<br />

And now the real work begins. Where do we start. First this was an addition to the house. The original home in the 1870s probably had the kitchen and out house seperate from the main house. This latter addition would have been around 1910ish when indoor plumbing was starting to come around for the wealthy. The floor is laminate tile (gone). The cabinets are gone. Look the kitchen is a gut. The doors are amazing and the light is unreal in this room. </div>

We wanted to take advantage of the space we had and a true island won't work. We are going to try an open galley concept. Restore the wood floors and create an open eating area right off the back door. 3 spots hit this area and 9 additional LED lights with undermount lighting under the top cabinets.</div>

Another view of the traffic flow. The triangle is intact with only the fridge in the flow of traffic. The prep and cooking area get direct access to the fridge which is hidden flush with the wall on the right. Additional storage is provided on the backside of the connected island. The island countertop will extend on the left all the way to the wall but couldn't get the rendering to let me do it. Also the eating space will be standard bar height rising above the cooking surface so people don't burn themselves. - hello children.</div>

Now the real work begins. From the pano view you can see the library on the left and the kitchen entry on the right. The right of the fire place has water damage from the chimney that wasn't flashed properly. Flash your chimney people, it will save you lots of water damage later. If you don't use it, please just lop it off the roofline, it will save you later. Large space and fixable floors. wallpaper has to go. Debating on putting up wall paper or painting. </div>

So the Library is where my area of the house can be claimed. Amazing space that leads to the dining room on the right and the front of the house on the left. It has folding doors and ready to be restored hardwood floors. This room will not be painted but restored to the original wood trim colors. </div>

When I say its big. Just look at the couch. I can't even get the right side of the room with the pano on my phone. Its about 615 sqft. That's the size of some New York apartments or even one bedrooms in Cincinnati and this is our front "room". It is the most complete room in the house. It only get worse from here so let's start on the high note. The molding is molded plaster not wood. Amazing craftsmenship. Sadly the parquet floor was sold off years ago so we are debating about how to restore a wood look that is cost effective. The door on the right goes to a screened in porch. Oh and the ceilings, they are 11 feet. Measured them with a laser to confirm. #crazytall<br />

Not a great picture and don't know if its original but it looks awesome in that room. They used to hold dances in this room back in the late 1870s.</div>

Yup that is carpet right next to the fireplace. Good thing it doesn't work. God knows what is under the carpet that needs fixing. That's what an adventure is for. Buy the house with the mystery behind the curtain, er carpet. </div>

We must be crazy. When Katie and I uttered those words to each other over dinner after three separate trips up to Cincinnati for house hunting I think we crossed a line somewhere. Are you trying to convince yourself of the fact or are you just trying to comfort yourself by eliciting that your spouse must also be a bit insane. There is comfort in knowing you're not alone in what you are attempting to undertake. We have joked about the Money Pit (see <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q2rVcxkbIQc" target="_blank">here</a>) and for me this is the second go round. This time however I was told the house had (read must here with my wife's eyes the deepest of red laser beams) be move in ready. Not just any move in ready mind you, VERY move in ready with our agreed upon finishes completed. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
How did we get here? </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b>House 1: </b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Made a trip up. Made a second trip up and drove the family all night on a Friday to see it on Saturday morning. Was told there was an offer on the table and we needed to decide by 3pm. We were scheduled to see the house at 1pm. When we saw the house, the listing agent interrupted our showing with her own client even though she knew we were scheduled to be there. We made an offer. It was the highest offer and was told they would fax it back by 5:30pm. 5:15pm we get a call. The owner signed another offer. The agent pulled in another buyer so she could get double the commission and we were never allowed to counter. We had no other houses lined up to see on the trip so that was a waste. House was sitting for 183 days and went multiple offers the morning we got there. #gah</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b>House 2:</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I had flown up for a 3 day house o poluzza tour and settled on a solid choice. Stain glass, decent neighborhood, had amazing charm. Took a ton of pictures, saw the house three times and knew the modifications that needed to be done on the house to make it fly for years to come. It was on the higher end of the community and we would be break even on the house but we were committed to being apart of the change in that area. The house had been sitting for 284 days. We made an offer on Monday, Seller Counter Tuesday, Wednesday we countered and they rescinded our offer. Our agent called them and asked them what number buys the house. They supplied a number, we wrote it up with their number and... they took another offer. #gah x2. We were planning on flying up Friday to look at house 2 under contract, but we ended up booking a flight to restart our search... again. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
So that brought us to Werk Rd. It was on the previous two trips but we couldn't get in the first trip and the 2nd I just didn't have time to get to it. It only had one exterior picture (we know what that means) so it never hit the "must see and be move in ready" list. Katie and I flew up in the middle of the blizzard and looked at 9 more properties. One we had to park a block and half away because the snow was so thick the cars would have been stuck. I was just ready to pick anything. Seriously, after the last two offers gone back, I didn't care. Did it have heat, A/C and would pass an inspection - sign me up. We showed up at Werk. It was a mess. Old, nasty, and full of damage everywhere. But did it have charm. You could tell this was the house to be on the block. 3500 sqft of space on the first two floors alone. 1600sqft basement that could be finished and a loft area of 1100 sqft. No shortage of space but it needed work. Katie did not approve(see <a href="http://media.tumblr.com/3ec46eeb705ad2853d59981c36fc23e6/tumblr_inline_mzoewjBn6K1qjhl77.jpg" target="_blank">here</a>) and was quickly moving me out of the house. Over an amazing dinner we crunched the math. It was nuts. The only one that made sense on paper was Werk. 3 were out off the bat because of neighborhoods. 3 more were too small for future family growth. 2 we were going to take a bath if we bought them which left... Werk. We went the next day with phrases like "I'm not saying we are going to get it but if we did...". We looked at it again during 5 inches of snow coming down and walking through the house with a fine comb to understand the scope of our insanity. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
We flew home. Slept on it. Put in an offer and it was accepted immediately. #scary That's when you should feel sick. It was hard to be happy. Did they know something we didn't and we were the suckers? Don't answer that - I would rather live in bliss. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
UPDATE: 3 days after the Werk Rd. house went under contract we received a call saying the buyer didn't like the inspection report of house 1 and walked away from the deal. The house was ours if we wanted it. #bangshead We politely declined. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
UPDATE 2: 2 days after the previous phone call we get a notice that house 2 is ours if we want it. It seemed the other offer was a cash offer which is why they took the lower deal (why if its less in the seller's pocket in the end I will never know) but the person backed out with cold feet. Although tempting (really, really tempting) it just didn't add up to what Werk could be after we renovated it (a lot). The numbers heavily favored Werk, bigger yard, better neighborhood, and on a dead end street. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I don't know if we were supposed to buy this house. Some say Jesus choose this house for us. It was quite an unusual ride to get here that I can't explain really. Would God give you a scorpion if you asked for bread? Perhaps we were asking for rocks and God refused to hand them to us. They might not have been the right homes for us. This is not the house a normal person would pick. We wanted bread and just perhaps this house holds the key to that recipe. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
So that's where we are now. At this point we are supposed to close next week. Who knows at this point. If it does go through it will be yet another amazing adventure. </div>
