House Hunting
We are still looking for a house to buy. We looked at one on Monday that was built in 1910, and it’s only 900 square feet. I adore the Victorian look it has, along with it’s original wood trim around the doors and windows. The backyard is huge, and it was supposedly landscaped by a master gardener. It has wood floors, too!
On the back side of the house, however, up high near the roof, there is a section of what you might think to be some siding painted blue. The blue is very bright, like the sky this time of year. The pictures make it look fine and well done. Up close, however, the siding magically disappears into a few rows of asphalt shingles put up on the side of the house, slathered in that bright blue paint. Creative and resourseful, that’s all I have to say.
