Yea, around here in August.

My mom's parents bought a house way out at the edge of town in 1928. They never moved until it was time to take them to the nursing home. My parents ended living a few blocks from there when Dad retired. I think it was move 19 for them. Dad's parents were almost vagabonds. They moved three times in their lifetimes.

One of my friends grew up in a wooded area in western OKC and he loved the house. He ended up buying it from his mom after his dad died. His mom moved to a nice gated community that has all the maintenance taken care of.

When we decided to get away from the horrible traffic of our old neighborhood we looked at a lot of houses. It was in the days of 28,800 BPS dial-up modems so no internet home viewing like today.

This house was the first one we looked at only because it was listed as having a bathroom in the 3 car oversize garage. We looked at a lot of weird houses, and came back to this place several times. We decided it was perfect when my wife saw the closet in the master bedroom. It is a walk in, turn left and keep walking huge closet. Really, it is L shaped. The first part is a normal size closet, then you turn left and keep going. Mrs Carrera said that was her dream. I just assumed the house had a kitchen and other bedrooms. The garage was my dream.
