House Collection

Em (wife) and I were at Mike's (former step-father) house. We had gone out into the back yard next to the chicken house, and we looked into the neighbor's yard. We saw that all the houses that we had looked at in some fashion or another were being transported here to this spot. The house at Trailwood (Vanguard), the house at Basswood (Seneca), a couple of the nicer mobile homes we've looked at, one of the Pulte homes along Trinity Blvd, and some others that I don't/can't remember.

They had turned the whole yard into a neighborhood of these homes. Some were being transported there, others were being built there from scratch. All of them were in various stages of completion. The roads around were all dirt, and there was, of course, a lot of construction stuff sitting around. Even though most of these houses were no where near completion, most of them seemed to have lights on inside.

It was late evening, and I think it was even winter time, sometime in late December around Christmas. We went and looked at them, almost as if we had to decide all over again which one to go with. There was some other stuff that happened after looking around and walking through the soon-to-be streets, but I don't remember what it was.
