We have finally crossed the threshold of adulthood and bought our own house. After months of looking at nasty foreclosed properties which were in our price range, we found a nice little historic gem in a cute Minnesota town.
It has just what we wanted... I wanted something with charm that we could afford with an acutal yard .... Dave wanted a place for the television, wireless internet, and intramural hockey. We'll both be satisfied.
So far, we've made 9 trips with the pickup loaded and 6 trips with the car loaded down. Nearly every time we've unloaded, we've had a neighbor come by to say hello and tell us about the other neighbors. The neighborhood seems like a good mix of people, and it seems like everyone knows at least something about someone else on the block.
