New House Visit
We visited the current owner of our house this evening. The purpose of the visit was to ask her how the heating system worked, a few other questions and to make many measurements. We also saw the back yard sans snow… it is quite attractive and surprisingly private with its richly leafed hedge.
The measuring happened in the way you would expect. The person was very nice and clearly has put her heart and soul into the place. She told us many stories about her renovations, told us exactly what stains she uses on her woodwork and explained all about the plants she has.
It was nice to know something about the person who made the house what it is today; I think she was happy to know that a nice young couple is buying it and will appreciate it too. She will leave us her new number in case we need anything, which is nice. Also, she has a deskfull of papers and receipts and warranties.
And we still like the house. 21 days until it is ours. 28 days until we move.
