Congratulations! That's awesome. I loved the feeling of buying our house.

The octagonal turrety bit looks cool. I want a non-rectangular room/turret. What is your view from those windows? Something cool or the rest of the neighborhood? (Which could, of course, be cool...)

Congrats Choco and Kits!!!
Can't wait to see it all.

Thanks, guys!

The octo-turret is in fact now a wonderfuly weird septagon. Originally, the room extended back to be a formal living room & dining area. Since we are buying new construction, we had the option of putting in a wall and closing it off so that now the septagon is going to be Kitsune's office. We are moving into the suburbs, so the view is not too exciting -- just the rest of the neighborhood.

WTG Choco and Kitsune! My heartiest congratulations to you both!

Very nice - Congrats!!!
Virtual Wine, salt & bread headed your way.

Yeah !! Cool House , Cant Wait for the tour !!!

I love the septagon too. Congratulations to you both!

ditto!

(aka heptagon, but I like septagon better)

Thanks, guys! Closing is possibly delayed, but should be either tomorrow or Monday. Trying to finish packing the apartment, today...

it's a brand of antibiotic cream. Choco's house is sponsored by Walgreen's. The kitchen is aka the Band Aid Station, the bathroom is the Angel Soft Retreat and the bedroom.....

This was the excitement in our lives this year...

April 5th, 2010, a storm hit the PDX area and the top of a Douglas fir hit us.
No one was hurt, but it was scary.
