It was pretty much my stable back in high school. And I'd say I'd probably go for older houses over brand new ones.Shoshanahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15707241263291051104noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1131924142966006519.post-48767732020794943912009-09-30T12:05:00.304-05:002009-09-30T12:05:00.304-05:00I had never heard of this Frank guy... :S But I lo...I had never heard of this Frank guy... :S But I love the houses pictured here! I love watching HGTV (the international shows are my fave, most of all Location, Location, Location etc. I don't know if you watch those?). I think I'd rather have an older home... Actually, the best would be an old english cottage... Ah, if only I was a millionaire...<br /><br />ps: oh, and like Amber said: built-in bookshelves all the way!Anaishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06224896416031363566noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1131924142966006519.post-16773790085130042802009-09-29T23:33:25.352-05:002009-09-29T23:33:25.352-05:00Beautiful homes!

I wore it the first week of middle school. I thought it was way hip. 6th graders just didn't get it. Was I genetically pre-determined to be socially awkward? Not to mention, on the first day of 6th grade I wore a DARE:keep kids off drugs shirt. I didn't want 8th graders to get the wrong impression. wow. I'm going to stop now. Looks like the vacation was fun. I hope you are soaking up the relaxation :)qwerkyqookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04692365826588340976noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1131924142966006519.post-79823764496203920702009-09-29T18:32:08.784-05:002009-09-29T18:32:08.784-05:00I LOVE old houses!

I hate the fact that it was inhabited by old people for the last 20 years and my house is a massive mess of 70s/80s/ and modern now that we moved in. Oh and we are on year three and everything is now going to crap. Like our ceiling leaking yesterday during the rain. The plus side? Our 2.6 acre yard. Our man room. We have a complete basement. We live in an awesome school district.The Many Thoughts of a Readerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12261949837343560602noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1131924142966006519.post-64245972136689896872009-09-29T14:54:25.483-05:002009-09-29T14:54:25.483-05:00UGH!

They just look so classic, elegant and have such charm that some of the newer homes do not have. <br /><br />Glad you had a great time on the trip & thanks for letting us know where you got your bag =) I might have to go in search of something similar!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1131924142966006519.post-41911773307173371802009-09-29T09:40:49.770-05:002009-09-29T09:40:49.770-05:00Oooh those houses are gorgeous!

But jazz it all up with some vintage feeling yet modern appliances and amenities. I will definitely have to get to Chicago sometime and take this tour. It sounds amazing!Nicolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16779992440781184550noreply@blogger.com
