Come a'haunting

Well so much for the below post where I claimed that I'd keep separate blogs.

Halloween in the new house was a smash. Lots of little ones came a'haunting. We went through 5 bags of candy, although someone left an almond joy on our trash can. We didn't decorate, but we did put out jack-o-lanterns. We took pictures but since we are now down to my Nikon 8008 (non-digital camera) I can't share until we finish the roll and get it developed. Developing film instead of uploading - now that's scary!

Happy Halloween.

A new blog - the alter ego to my other one. I think it will be fun to have a separate blog about our experiences as homeowners. With this blog I hope to accomplish the following things:
1) create a record of all the work we've put into the house
2) allow our friends - whether far or near flung - to keep up with our 'goings ons'
3) encourage others to consider homeownership and/or the d.i.y. approach to home repair/improvement

Even if no. 3 isn't immediately relevant to most my readership, one day it will be.
