Team AngelaIt's Like Extreme Home Makeover: Angela Edition!

We’re out of the ground! John and his crew are zipping along, and have the first floor deck on, and the first floor walls framed. Walking around in the newly-framed space is like wandering around in ideas that have come to life. The spaces feel great, with windows in good spots, and the rooms just the right scale. I was almost speechless, which should give you some idea how well it’s turning out.

While I was imagining eating breakfast in the dining room/kitchen (I had imaginary waffles), Angela’s sister Alexandra, her husband Bobby, and their kids walked up the street for a visit. Then one of our neighbors Steve (terrific guy) stopped by with his little girls, and pretty soon we had kids running all through the house and yard, and the adults chatting away. It didn’t take any imagination to see how friendly a place it’s going to be- our decision to move feels better every day

Speaking of which, it’s getting to be time to put our house in Newton on the market, so if you know someone that might be interested, have them drop us a line at bauer.c at comcast.net. We’re at 642 Centre St., in a well-loved home within walking distance to just about everything.
