As you know we have been looking at houses. So far, the ones we have liked are on the Indiana side of the river. Now that may sound bad as W and C and the temple are on the Kentucky side of the river. However, the taxes are lower on this side and you get more for your buck on the IN side. Now that may sound good, but you have to drive across the Kennedy bridge which is very busy due to repair work on one of the other bridges. Now that may sound bad, but the other bridge is to be done the end of February. Now that may sound good, but as the traffic won't be as bad it still has heavy traffic and it is an example of what the future can hold. If we find a place on the KY side we wouldn't have to worry about the bridge. Now that sounds good, but the houses and taxes are more. From the looks of things we would still drive about the same distance to either W and C or to the temple. Oh, the joys of house hunting.
At any rate, this is the house that we have been most interested in. It is a great house but there is a draw back, it is about a foot ball field length from the outer belt loop. Now that is not all bad, as the bridge across the river joining it to the KY side is not there. Now that may sound good, but they do plan on building it. The earliest it would be done is in six to eight years. Now that may sound bad, but as B says, "We may not be alive then."
A real plus to the place is a twenty five by thirty foot garage out back. We can't put the truck in the attached garage as the truck is too long. (We are seeing lots of this.) However, it easily fits in the second garage and there is lots of room for B to fiddle with whatever. He is already drooling about that. There is also room to park the trailer at the side of the garage as we would like to keep it on site. That makes it easy to use when company comes. Since the house has three bedrooms up and two non-conforming (no windows) in the walk-out basement, we would have to have a very large group there. Here are some of the pictures of this place. I forgot to take any of the second garage.


I didn't get a picture looking the other direction toward the master bedroom, laundry room and door to the garage.




There is a pantry which they had loaded.


Master area.



Down stairs. It seems everyone here has a wet bar.

This is adjacent to the bar.


This is gas and works even if the power goes out, which we have found can happen frequently.

This is one of the two non-conforming bedrooms in the basement.

A large storage area.

With all this space, if we buy it y'all will have to come see us.

It looks pretty darn nice. It is however a little far from Spokane.But we will forgive you.

He needs to get a job to afford his plane ticket first. Cool looking house. It would be awesome to have a place that we could all gather.
