STUFF!

Here are a collection of before photos of the inside of our Indiana house. So much stuff! It's is amazing we have collected all this stuff, none have we used in the last eight months! So what does that say about us? We have too much stuff! We doing a great favor for our children. We're going to dget rid of it now so they don't have to later.

The real prize at our Indiana house is the Jack-in-the-Pulpits that come up every spring and always in a different place. How does this happen?

Safe in Indiana

The trip to Indiana went well. We were rained out Sunday and stopped early but finished the last 750 miles on Monday! We've opened the La Porte house, summerized the motor home for the GLASS rally, visited some family and friends, attended the funeral of a church friend, rested and began the process of readying the La Porte house for sale, it's amazing just how much stuff one accumulates over a 70 year lifetime, especially when you save everything just cause "I might need that someday"!

We finalized the contract for the house in Texas yesterday so when all the paperwork is finished it will be ours!

Wanna buy a house in La Porte? Before we list with a realitor it could be a great price...and yes we will move allour stuff out! The sale could include an elecric start snow blower, a spa, all appliances. It's a three BR 2 1/2 bath (all upgraded last year) two story with fireplace in the finished basement family room, eat in kitchen, large rear decks extra large (24X24)attached garage on a 1/2 acre heavily wooded chain link fenced (back yard only) lot in a quiet rural subdivision in the New Prairie School District.

Here's two photos both before spring clean up. Remember we just returned Monday night at 9:00 p.m.

One photo is of the front the other is looking out over the decks toward our woods. There was a racoon on our deck on Wednesday.

Remember I said we live in a wooded rural subdivision, racoons, possoms, deer are common in our back yard. Our prize are the annual jack-in-the-pulpits that come every spring in a new location each year!

Heading North!

We're heading north this morning. Our plan is to meet Todd & family in Nad?????gochees, Tx this evening and visit. They're heading home (south) to Monterrey. We've decided to sell our La Porte house and buy a house here. We have an accepted contract to buy a house at Alamo Country Club (834 Nada). We're really excited and a bit overwhelmed. Our La Porte house includes 25+ years of accumulated stuff we have to unload and move to Texas. Do you know anyone who wants a full grown potted Bay tree (laurel nobilis) you know the kind bay leaves come from. And there is the 50 year collection of tax stuff! And the stuff in the garage. The good news is Todd and Beth are hoping to buy a house in Ohio...so they may get lots of stuff....

The pics are of the inside of the ACC house and that's my new kitchen with state of the art appliances. Three BR's a two car garage, large enclosed patio, golf cart with it's own garage master bath is large enuff for a dance.

Would you believe that when I packed the Solara to head north (Texas is home, now) we got everything in the trunk?!

See the beautiful flowers from Todd & Beth for Eileen's mother's day!
