I apologize for being away from blogging, newsletter, and such for the last two months, But we had things that had to be done that could not wait. On the 10th of August, Patty and I went back to Utah, spent another week clearing all the remaining “stuff” out of our house and basement business area – and then proceeded to spend the next 6 weeks getting the place ready to sell. We basically remodeled the entire house. If it could be repainted, or recarpeted, we did just that. If it could be replaced with something newer and more modern, in most cases we did that too. When we finished, to stand in the house and look around, you would think you were in a new home. The house is located exactly 10 miles from the Family History Library in Salt Lake City, in the beautiful suburb north of the city known as Bountiful. The house is a ways up the “bench,” so the views are wonderful. The place is now our “dream house,” with all the upgrades done that we wanted to do while living there. We didn’t get them done until we moved out, as we found it’s nigh on to impossible to remodel while living in a home and running a business in the basement. So someone else is getting our baby.
We bought the place in 2008, principally because is was close to the Family History library, and had an interior room with no windows that we could use as our personal library area. The folks we bought it from had done the same, so the property was actually advertised as having a “library.”
Take a look at the listing online to see what we’ve done the last two months.
