661 Boundary Street --- my old home

When K and I were looking for a house in Birmingham I know in our hearts we wanted a bungalow that had the look and feel of the houses we lived in when we went to college at Montevallo. This is mine -- it is a little more run down than when we lived there, butt he charm and signature bungalow features are still very much alive. If I ever had the means I would buy this house and restore it. I will always love it like a friend.

Of all three houses, I like this one best, It has a very cozy looking front porch....

I hate a house that does not have a grand and cozy front porch....

When I get old, I want to be the old guy sitting rocking in a rocking chair pecking away at his laptop computer....the modern day version of the old guy sitting on his porch rocking an writing his memoirs in a journal or diary....

I agree 100% with you Mojo. I feel the same the way.We spent many hours on this porch playing guitar and talking and looking out at the world. It's all about a front porch to me as far as houses go.

This house is in Montevallo Lee Ann.

Happy Birthday Audrey Rose!

Audrey Rose Georges turned one year old today. Her mom, Angela, made this wonderful invitation for the occasion and has done an excellent job of documenting Audrey from a positive pregnancy test to her most recent milestone, taking her first steps, through her blog, My Daily Struggle . This is one well-documented and adored kid and I hope Angela and Papa Tim congratulate themselves on 12 months of excellent hard work. Audrey is a little superstar.

"It's too close for comfort, this heat has got right out of hand"

Does anyone remember the video for this song. It was so stupid. The Banarama girls were being followed by a trucker and they threw some banana peels on his windshield -- like that would stop him. Any other '80s fans out there remember any more details? I still loved the group and still love the song. I actually have this single on vinyl -- just like the picture. Tomorrow will be a beast. Today the air conditioning was like the Little Engine that Could except this little engine never made it over the hill. The dog pants all the time like she can never quite catch her breath and outside it is just nasty. Even at midnight tonight it was still 85 degrees and a super sauna outside. I have an elaborate system of fans set up in the bedroom and it helps. Andi even has her own fan and she sleeps jacked up right next to it. To add insult to injury, K called me at work frantic last night, "THERE IS A POSSUM IN THE BASEMENT!" If that exclamation doesn't typify the deep south I d...
