Checkin' it out...

Saturday, September 03, 2005
Nate took me all over the place so I could scope out different areas. There are some very mature areas around here (homes built in the early 1900s) and a lot of interesting architecture. What stuck out the most though was that the grass was dead (some call it dormant) everywhere. Because of the weather, I expected lush, green lawns. The streets are very narrow too.

My favorite area was a newer neighborhood with a new elementary school and a 15-acre sports and play facility. The only problem with this area was that the commute to work would be 45 minutes to an hour (or more) via public transit. I’d like to keep the commute down around 30 minutes, which would put me in one of the older neighborhoods.

We looked around until after 5:00 p.m. Man! I was exhausted. I watched Ray (the Ray Charles story) and went to bed around 9:00.
