No getaways yet
Went to look at the cabin on the weekend. Didn't like it. The kitchen (which was in the pictures) was nice, but the rest was just OK. We'd have to make a lot of changes to make it what we want, and it's just not worth it.
Our agent also did some digging into the other cabin that sold during the week (the nice snow covered one in the pictures). She noticed that it had been sold quite a few times over the past 10 years. Apparently it was once used as a grow-op, but was not disclosed in the listings anywhere (as it is legally supposed to be). Once a place is used as a grow-op, it's almost impossible to get it back to a decent state. You will forever have mold problems if nothing else. So we are still on the hunt.
On another note, Q and I just booked a flight and hotel last week for Halloween in New Orleans. If the hurricane does anything close to the damage that they are predicting, then I don't think we'll be going. Time to call our travel agent.... Things could be worse though, we could actually be there or living there right now. I feel terrible for the people in that area. It's going to be rough once the storm is done.
