Mr. Homeowner

I fell in love today. We went to the house today to have the home inspection and Mr. Homeowner came home while we were having the inspection, and he was the sweetest old many alive(well except my Gramps of couse!) While the inspector was looking around the house Mr. Homeowner decided to show me around the place and teach me the tricks on how the house works and where things are located.

Mr. Homeowner started to talk to me and I learned about his life, his time in the Air Core, how he met his wife, how he cared for his wife for 7 years while she was sick, and what his children and grandchildren are up to with their lives. I ended up getting all teary talking to this guy and hearing his life story. He reminded me so much of my Grandpa that I just got emotionally connected to him. So while Mitch and Kraig were learning all kinds of valuable information about the house I made a new friend in Mr. Homeowner.

Once Mr. Homeowner and I became friends he started giving me things. By the end of the day we were the pround new onwers of lawn chairs, two rakes, and even a bed!

The inspector did his thing while I was accumulating new things and making friends and basically told us we had found a great house. He found a few minor repairs we needed to make but we had expected that when we decided to buy a 60 year old house. We feel confident that this house isn't going to fall over anytime soon and are ever more excited to move in on September 18th!!!

A big thanks to Mitch's dad, Kraig, who drove down from Brainerd today to be an extra set of eyes and ears for us during the inspection. We really appreciate your help!
