It's all about finding the right house for us

This house would be great for us, because we look like this:


...but unfortunately my son has an eraser for a head, so we'll keep looking.

The "restaurant in Havana" look is a big selling point.

Or maybe it's a really cheerful morgue? From here.

But is there RV parking?

If this is a photo they thought looked good, what could the bad ones have looked like? From here.

UPDATE: They removed this photo! Spoilsports. Sensible spoilsports.

The eyes... they follow me around the room...

Five bucks says it's a painting of the real estate agent. From here.

It's Lovely! You Found It!

I love it when people send me listings they've stumbled across. If you've found something good (by which I mean bad), please send me an e-mail.

Real estate websites are awful, awful things for the most part, and their links often don't work, so if you can include the MLS number and the city or town where the listing is, that's helpful.

I appreciate every e-mail I get, but I usually don't have time to reply. I'm sorry about that, but I'm doing this in the spare minutes I can grab. If I do use a listing you send me, I'll be sure to give you credit.

Thanks!
