A really good (bad) one




Checked out this little house by the Gorge this week. It would have been an ideal project: Loads of charm, and filthy enough to keep the competition and the price low-ish. Vacant for a couple of years, we were told. Needed a lot of work (a bathroom, for one thing), but room in the basement for a nice suite. Cobwebs so thick they hung like mesh curtains in some of the rooms. Much speculation by Morley and me about the source of the stains on the ceilings.
Alas, must take a pass on this one. It's perfect, but the timing is wrong for us at this moment.
