We're Still Chewing

As usual, have we bitten off more than we can chew? I think we would feel disoriented without mounds of stress in our lives. Last Saturday we had a yard sale, which I'd forgotten how much work they are putting together. We were happy to rid ourselves of accumulation and open up the barn quite a bit. On Sunday we took our yard sale loot to our neighbor's house to view their used hot tub for sale. Which I'm very excited to say we are buying! Our neighbor's house up on the ridge is what planted a seed of desire to build a log home in the woods. During this visit we received a tour of the camp on their property. Before they built their gorgeous house they lived in this amazing camp. It seems every time we visit them we leave with life changing notions. Our next stop was the grocery store where Dave picked up a real estate guide. In it was a property in Fairfax, an 11.64 acre wooded lot with a two story camp. We went from our yard sale whirlwind into a property acquisition whirlwind. Tuesday we toured it, Wednesday we went to the bank about financing, today we made an offer and are meeting with some friends who are general contractors this evening. Before we build we will need to sell the barn and make the camp livable as temporary quarters while the log home is constructed. I'm sure living in a small two-story camp with two little ones and three dogs will produce tons of material for the blog. Wish us luck!
