2 for the road

I know, I know. Pictures were promised and it's been too long.

There have been 2 pictures taken so far. So, so sad. For one reason or another, I just haven't been able to get it done. Either I forgot the camera, the cord, batteries, or more likely, there is a mess that I just don't want to record for posterity's sake.

So here they are! All 2 pictures! Both of the outside.

The front door is right there at the little patio. The 2 windows in the closest corner are in the kitchen.


This is the back. That's my bedroom window.

Looking at the second picture, you can see what I was talking about when I mentioned this was built way back when people wanted a mobile home to look mobile. The 2 big taillights and the marker lights up top are still there. Of course it's been modernized a little. You can see a bit of the cable box down at the bottom.

I've done a little bit of work to it to make it a little less 'cheap' feeling. Those repairs have prompted me to start writing my next blog post which will be all about some of the little things you can do to make an old house, trailer, or apartment feel new again, without major renovations or cost. Trust me, I have experience. Too much experience. Some day I hope to build my own new house. Some day.


This is something I absolutely do want to record for posterity's sake.

    And those beautiful smiles are well worth recording :-)

  3. secret agent - I yay too!

    laura - It's a place. Can't say it's 'great' so much, but thank you!

    Fatherhood - That's a good idea. I'm already stumbling over 'home' and 'my house' and all that.
    Thanks!
