    The market is here is way down. The completely restored one bedroom home that I showed y'all is $29,000 asking. I found it. The GPS was completely off. It's on a street one over from the street that's the main entrance. It's got almost no traffic and the mobile home itself has such a peaceful energy to it in person. There's nothing built on one of the lots to the side of it. It's immaculate and private. It even has luxury features in the kitchen and a luxury bathroom. I don't know of any other one bedroom in my park. It's been on the market for about 160 days. I think the fact that it's a one bedroom is why it hasn't sold yet. I visit the ad often just to know if it's still on the market. I shouldn't get my hopes up (yeah, too late) because it probably will be sold by the time I might be in a position to buy it. I don't want to jinx it but it would be a perfect "dowager house" for the mother of a family. I think that's why it might sell in the foreseeable future. Anyway, I have six years of experience with mobile home living including lots of restoration work and this would be my dream home. It needs nothing. It's not grand. I have nothing against grand, elegant, and refined homes and gardens (being an Anglophile-- Lol) but this place meets the main criterion I have for any "dream home"-- minimalism. https://www.realtor.com/realestateandhomes-detail/7349-Ulmerton-Rd-Lot-314_Largo_FL_33771_M97195-59606 I've said this before but I would move to Colorado if I won the lottery. The only problem with that dream is, at least so far, I've had no desire to spend money buying lottery tickets. My ultimate dream house would be a Georgian house in the UK. That's something I know is impossible but I enjoy looking. I enjoy all of these real estate threads.

    @Axtremus it’s not Japanese. You can turn it sideways and see that it’s alphabet-esque.

    You're assuming your own conclusion, Ax. It isn't possible now and there is no logical proof it will be in the future.

    We DVR all the Colbert shows, but we don’t watch every one. I did like his stinging commentary about Trump. But all there late-night shows fall into a routine. Steve Allen had man-on-the-street. Carson had the psychic bit. Letterman did the pet tricks. etc. Colbert had the “first drafts” and Colbert Questionnaire, which was really dumb. It always got predictable. If you’re so creative, make up a new idea at least once a week. That said, this does sound like self-censorship.

    Easily the most beautiful city in North America, imho. And always very interesting to see the houses Gilded Age families had built for themselves. Thanks!

    Edit, roofing company called. I was wrong. It's July 25. That will be a relief. 94 F. and s/b high with 93 F in an hour but who knows. This too shall pass.

    The Copilot Pinot Noir is also a very nice table wine at the price.

    There was another recipe that uses a combo of coconut milk and regular milk. And the recipe is scaled down for an 8x8 pan, which might be nice. I might try it sometime: https://zhangcatherine.com/pumpkin-butter-mochi/ It also suggests using an oiled knife to cut the mochi.
