My New House

Look what I just bought!

Three bedrooms, three baths, 1700 sq. ft.


Living Room: Behind those mirrors is a 1950s photo mural of the High Sierras. I'm going to take down the mirrors and put a mural of an animation background there.


Nice kitchen.


One of the oddities of the house is this hallway. But for me, it's perfect... a 25 foot long walk in closet for my record collection. The window on the right will be replaced by French doors leading into my library.



Here is the fun part... a RUMPUS ROOM! I'm installing a screen and video projection system in here. You're all invited to the movie parties!


Li'l Pal is pleased as punch with her very first back yard.

Lots of work to do before I can move in. Anyone know good drywall / flooring / painting / cinder block wall guys?
