Dear folks,

WOW. I never imagined that this little post would take off like it has. Thank you, everyone for the encouraging words. The whole idea of communal living is an interesting idea that I'd never considered before. And I guess, like they say in real estate, location is everything. On the one hand, I can't imagine living anywhere but Detroit, but on the other hand, the winter weather gets less attractive every year. But, in the meanwhile, if you're ever in the neighborhood, you'd be most welcome to stop and visit for a while.
