wr0ngway Posted February 14, 2007 Posted February 14, 2007 I bought this place in spring of 2004, about the time I disappeared from the board and social events. Its on a 1 acre site, close in to a historic town on a hillside overlooking the river and small city. The river is mostly obscured by trees, except for now, in the winter, the sun sparkles off the water in the afternoon. (south orientation) The house was built in 1920 by a Reverend / Magistrate / Entrepreneur. The locale was incorporated as a town in 1726 and has a lot of history dating from the civil war... Here are some before and after shots. I have hundreds more, but haven't organized a nice presentation yet, kind of waiting for the final product which is a few months (hopefully). april 2004 : dec 2006 some not very good shots of the awesome daily sunset and the owners Quote
DaveK Posted February 14, 2007 Posted February 14, 2007 Fuck.....can't wait to see the 100% complete pictures. That is so nice. Be proud...especially after the shit you have gone through. Cute kids. Quote
wr0ngway Posted February 14, 2007 Author Posted February 14, 2007 ....shit you have gone through. Thanks Dave you really have a lot of heart, seriously. However I gotta say, one thing I've learned, pretty much all my misery is self inflicted 'cause the world is mostly a very beautiful place. Quote
DaveK Posted February 14, 2007 Posted February 14, 2007 I remember what you went through...and it wasn't a story I can ever forget. You were put through the ringer....financially, emptionally, physically and I say congrats to you for making that house a home. NO ONE deserves it more than you. dave Quote
