This is how the potential buyer see the house.


This is how the lender sees the house.


This is how the appraiser sees the house.


This is how the county tax assessor sees the house.


What the buyers are thinking.
I wish there were a picture showing how hard the realtor has to work to get it sold.

Shakespeare Quote from King Lear



Great advice from William Shakespeare, the bard of Avon.

Yellow Jacket at Work


This is the third paper nest this year I've had to knock down. I could hardly believe my eyes when I saw this one going up at the top of the door jamb between my living room and the balcony. That's a little too close to home for me. Doesn't he look positively wicked? The yellow jackets make the gray paper themselves by chewing on slivers of wood. The young are hatched and food is stored in the nest’s center or "core" of hexagonal cells. That's today's science lesson from the cottage. my Nikon photo
