Subject: RE: BS: A house! A house! From: Wilfried Schaum Date: 09 Oct 03 - 05:08 AM Rapaire - Congratulations; enjoy your house, at least for the first weeks - then you will see that your work will never end. I'm a house owner for 60 years and I'm always harrassed by my wife: Repaint here, a tap to repair there, and when did you mow the lawn for the las time? &c. ... Now the whole electric system must be replaced, since it's 70 years old and growing dangerous, so we live in a construction site again. But you may sometimes still find time for your books and trumpet ... Wilfried (a fellow librarian) |

Subject: RE: BS: A house! A house! From: Amos Date: 09 Oct 03 - 12:21 AM I'm loading the station wagon as I write.

I think it'll all fit!!! See ya soon, Rap!!! A |
Subject: RE: BS: A house! A house! From: Stilly River Sage Date: 09 Oct 03 - 12:18 AM I found two that come close in Realtor.com:
3,990 Sq. Ft. MLS ID#: 98135662 The other is:
MLS ID#: 98145353. It's actually in Idaho City. Top listing sounds more like what you describe, but it seems odd to have a duplex out in the boonies. Is it in Boise proper? SRS (I love this kind of detective work!) |

Subject: RE: BS: A house! A house! From: Bill D Date: 08 Oct 03 - 11:31 PM 4200 squares? I could have a REAL shop somewhere in that! And I thought my 2000 was pretty good. Heating bills may be 'interesting' in Idaho...but it sounds good! |
Subject: RE: BS: A house! A house! From: Ebbie Date: 08 Oct 03 - 11:15 PM Isn't Rapaire in Idaho? Hey, I can make it too. Let's have a BIG party. Please set up the coffee pot in a convenient spot. Appreciate it. (And I want the bathroom closest to the music room, please.) :) |

Subject: RE: BS: A house! A house! From: wysiwyg Date: 08 Oct 03 - 10:58 PM Two kitchens? Gotta have a MudGather. Congrats! When do we show up? ~S~ |
Subject: RE: BS: A house! A house! From: Amos Date: 08 Oct 03 - 10:43 PM 4200 square feet is a tad smallish compared to where you lived when you were the Chancellor of Notre Dame, I suppose, or President of the US. But for most working class Americans that is a pretty generous chunk of residence you got there Rapaire!! Might one enquire what you're paying? Only if it isn't tabu to ask. Congratulations on a house. Now, a heap o' living..... A |

Subject: BS: A house! A house! From: Rapparee Date: 08 Oct 03 - 10:23 PM At 1:30 p.m. Mountain Daylight Time, today, October 8, 2003, our offer on a house was accepted by the sellers! YES! Before the weather turns really cold I can move out of the cardboard box under the bridge!! Now we'll have room for my wife's fabric, for her to quilt, for me to sit in a corner and mope, but mostly a place WHERE I CAN PLAY MY TRUMPET AND NOT BOTHER ANYONE except Pat. No, it's not the one with the pit. Someone else got that one. This one is a tad smallish, with a nominal 4,200 sq. ft, 5 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, two full kitchens (it used to have a downstairs apartment), two fireplaces with inserts, and back yard that looks out onto a golf course (but not where flying golf balls will be a frequent hazard). What's that? What do you mean, "Now you have to pay for it?" Aw, poop. |
