Spence....nothing will stop me from fishing....NOTHING!

The shingles are worn and cracked and need replacing along with the trim.....next spring!

Gutters are new and aluminum!

Roof is spankin' new!

Chimney is mint, fireplace was never used and is clean and the top has a cap brand new!

Shrubs trimmed? Whatever...when I get to them!

The grass has grubs? Can I get them any ketchup?

Boiler is new!

Elecrical is great with a new breaker panel!

Septic backing up? Maybe....but the seller must put in a new septic at a cost of $24,000.00 before we close....and its a beauty!

All hardwood throughout....and is in good shape!

Appliances...we have new ones.....4 years ago that are going with us.....kitchen will be gutted, wall between kitchen and dining room coming down to make bigger kitchen area....who uses dining rooms any more? And she does want a Sub-Zero stainless monster....ok by me!

I have a saw....the bed will fit one way or the other!

We just bought a new living room set that will fit and look great....other than that...we don't have much furniture!

Tree behind us does not belong to us and can't reach the house!

Toilet vents fine but bathroom is disgusing and in need of updating....badly!

I will fish the season out and have all winter to work on the house....perfect timing!

How does that all sound?

Almost time to get our fish on!!!

If you give me the chance, I'll be I can talk her out of it

Seriously, I wouldn't think of a Sub-Zero for that house...for many reasons...

Larry,

DO NOT, but a SUB-ZERO brand fridge when you redo the kitchen. Buy the biggest brand name you can find, GE Maytag etc. The Subs are expensive and if you ever need it fixed because it is not working properly it is expensive and the parts aren't readily availible.

My Maytag wasn't defrosting right. Had an appliance guy come it to put in a new component. He told me a a costumer with a SZ that they had parts on order for the last 9 months!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks Beamie.....fortunately they will prove way too rich for our blood......I don't see the need for such a refridgerator.....I am sure our 4 year old fridge will be with us for quite awhile......besides....I might need to buy a VS!

Almost time to get our fish on!!!
