I see, wood siding is nice. Vinyl siding is hideous. in 30 years, people will look back and wonder 'what the hell were we thinking'? a friend of mine whose home is from the 1880s is putting vinyl siding, I told him, 'at least it will keep the structure in good shape for when the new owners will someday want to do a proper restoration'.

My house was put through the dregs in the 1970's. I'm not sure how the interior wood work survived. It was carved up into five apartments, like a rooming house almost. We're restoring it now. As best we can.

This guy owned my house and the house next door and he got a deal on surplus lamp post paint and had both houses painted in it. Industrial lamp post green. Poor houses. The house next door is still carved up into four apartments.

My neighborhood is doing very well. Property values have gone way up since I moved here twelve years ago. More and more of the houses are being restored. They're all huge Queen Anne's, only blocks away from the best part of the city, with shops and restaurants flourishing. It's the best part of city living right now.

I want to move to a small town all the benefeits of city living, but still without the hassle. I mean really, how many chinese restaurants does one person need? but it looks like that dream will go unfullfilled.

Azure went out back and started seriously barking at the neighbors behind us. I met the wife Nava. And her kids Isaac and what's his fave. Serious jews. I had no idea. Talk about property values going up. It's all gays and jews now. Cha ching!

out of curiosity, do they have the neighborhoods with $300k homes going up everywhere near you? they have them here I figure people are going to lose their asses. this type of home value increase is unsystainable in my opinion. they're no longer going by the 'you can afford a home 2 1/2 times your yearly salary' rule. they're financing too much.

You know, they're going up all around Rochester. I know because we just drove over there last weekend. I honestly haven't been around the former farm lands here. And I have no idea who could possibly be buying them in Rochester. They're job market is worse then ours.

I don't go out to the suburbs much when I'm in Buffalo. Everything I need is within a three mile radius. Including the baseball park.

he's going to my brother. I'll miss him. thought about bringing him. since we're not cruising the South Pacific, it's still an option as many of the islands allow dogs on them. I hope he'll come back to me when I return.

It's tough for a dog on a boat. He'll come back to you. Dogs don't forget. THere was an article in the NY times today about how dogs have the vocabulary of apes.
