New Digs

We have been saying that 2007 is the year we move out of our apartment (that we love) in East Rock and into something/somewhere else.

We’ve done a lot of thinking and planning. We’ve considered: location, finances, commute time, community, proximity to family/friends, eco-friendly and power efficient structures, and many other things that are likely to drive one mad.

We will of couse sort all this out and find what makes the most sense for us, but we could use your help. So, wish us luck and send us tips or phone number of reliable sources of information(mortgage brokers, realtors, contractors, inspectors, log home builders, material supply companies- and anything else interesting). Tell us your stories and we’ll keep you posted with ours.

Happy New Year
See you around the hearthstone.

P.S. Here is some interesting reading that we came across within the last day. We won’t go to this extreme I’m sure, but it does fuel the mind

Elise- Yeah, they even have solar panels for their computers. I like camping and all, but that is a bit extreme.

Lauren- Awesome that will be a big help.
