I have skimmed through the blog and I like what I see. I think the model approach to finding a place is very interesting. It reminds me of all the computer classes I've taken. I hope you find someplace great for our next home, but I just want you to know I'm still pulling for Columbus, although you'll be living in the house a lot longer than I will, so it's really up to you guys.
ReplyDeleteI hope you have fun and I'll keep up on your progress.
