| When we retired we purchased a 28 X 72 four bedroom doublewide on 1/2 acre. The land was overrun with weeds and the house needed a lot of repairs. We really got the place for a song. The pictures show where we are at as of November 1st, 2006 |
| Finally replaced the "plywood window" with a sliding glass door. A deck is in the plans. |
 |
| We bought a double wide, repo'd, H.U.D. manufactured home on a dirt road. We are officially "trailer trash"! |
| A year later the road has been paved, the garage has been built and the house has been painted... |
| ...weeds so bad we had to park the car in front of the house |
| The weeds are gone and we have planted five trees in the front yard |
| YUCK!!! |
| We fenced off the north side of the house for the dogs and some privacy.. |
| The south side presented other challenges. |
| We replaced the steps with an 8x8 platform while we determine what to do here... |
| Some idiot actually placed the septic tank in the driveway! Eventually we will have to replace it and we'll move it at that time. |
| We temporarily framed an area to surround the porch. The figurines are a present from our neighbors. Legend has it they bless the land |
| Do we need to say anything here? |
| We still need to move the gas bottle and replace the plywood window |
| Check out our garden to see what we did here. |
