I am very, very sad to be leaving my little house in the city, but I found myself a nice lake house (the picture shows the lake view I have from my home). It's quite a distance from the Twin Cities and does need some fixing up. I finally closed on the home earlier this week and have started getting bids on several things that need to be addressed. I've also started moving some of my belongings into the home too.
Overall, I'm happy with the property and I'm more than willing to put in a lot of sweat equity. I hope that in the spring you all can come out and join me for a swim at my new home.
