Another viewing

I saw another place today. I like everything about it. Until I noticed one thing. I had so expected a garage for a house, it didn't even cross my mind to check for one. That's is until the agent mentioned that there is plenty o' space to build one.

*sigh* there isn't really.

Maybe you could get those plastic encasings like a tent as a faux garage. I see them here in Quebec all the time.

BTW, any reason why you are doing comment moderation AND word verification? Usually one or the other, no?

Thanks for the suggestion. But I'm still holding out for a proper garage. For future resale, I think a garage will make a big difference as well.


Hmm...I always thought comment moderation and word verification comes together. Thanks for the heads up. I will look into it :)
