December Makes It’s Presence Felt

Frost On The Field

This morning dawned with a coating of white in the field out back. The second frosty morning of this years trek into the cooler months. If this keeps up we may be facing another anomalous season coming. Two nights of frost before Christmas is already pushing past our norms in this area.

So now we are wandering through the morass of different features offered by different builders. And it is really hard to compare apples and oranges…Which is what we seem to be forced to do.

So, between tweaking floor plans and talking to “Consultants” and trying to get ready for the holidays, my posting here may be even more sporadic than normal.

Right now I’m looking for more info on a batch of homes that look like this…
