MT,
I looked at 4 homes in the age restricted park and naturally I liked the most expensive. It's the one that's 1854 sq ft.
First the pluses.
The master bedroom is 24' x 14' with two large closets and a door that leads to a outside deck which is about 4' x 6'. The bath has a separate shower and tub.
The kitchen is large 14' x 12' and has an island with a stove top on it. It has lots of cabinets and a dishwasher.
What they call the family room, which I think would be a better dining room is 10' x 10'.
There's a dining area that's an extension of the living room and a family room off of the kitchen which I think would be better suited as the dining room.
There's another room 21' x 12' that would make either a nice den or office and it has a big closet it could also be a third bed room if needed.
The living room with what they call the dining area is 34' x 13' and it has a real front door on the opposite side from the carport.
There is a nice sized screened in porch that you could put a table and 4 chairs and still have room to move around.
The car port is nice and it has two sheds back to back and the wall that separates them could be removed and turned into a nice shop area for my tools.
It has a fenced in back yard. The fence is wire, but that's probably all that's needed.
It even has a utility room with a washer and dryer and lots of cabinets.
It even has a sprinkler system that you can control, set the timer and forget about it. I also like the landscape; it needs some attention, but nothing drastic.
Now the minuses.
The walls are all paneling and the kitchen cabinets are the cheap kinds that they put in mobile homes in the 80's.
The worse is that the carpet in the master bedroom is bright red and the master bath is painted rose.
These are all things that can be fixed, so it's not a baggy.
The only problem is that they need to see the W2's from the last two years and they are in VA. I have '06 on my computer and can print it out, but will probably have to wait till after January when I file the '07 return to apply for a loan. On the plus side, nothing is moving as far as real estate so I really don't have to worry much.

Subject: RE: [PSUBS-MAILIST] au revoir my friends for now
We all have to make tough decisions; which is more important?, spouses or submarines !
Fellow Psubbers,
After several years of intense involvement and study in this fascinating subject, the time has unfortunately come that I have to step aside. I wont be leaving the mailist, just filing directly to a dedicated mailbox. I just won't be as involved anymore but will on occasion, pop in to see what's going on.
A combination of life's commitments, lack of spousal interest, and the logistic realities that we have all discussed so many times, preclude my pursuing a submersible project at this time. Hopefully, someday in full retirement if time and circumstances present themselves, I will be in a position to reconsider. If I am able, I will make an attempt to attend the '09' convention if in Florida.
I take from this experience a wealth of knowledge gained from my interactions with people on this list and, newly found CAD skills....not a bad deal at all! I could list the names of those responsible for this but, I wont...you know who you are! Please feel free to contact me at any time via my regular inbox.
Au Revoir for now my friends
Joe Perkel
