New House Drop By

Of course we stopped by the house today. Most likely this will be the last time that we stop by before the final walk and closing. I don’t know why I say things like that.

Might as well throw in a gate too.

This is the kind of deck that we are looking for:

Final picture (to celebrate 95% packing completion:

Michelle’s beer is a non-alcoholic by the way…
