When we moved into our house back in 1970, Dr. and Mrs. William King lived here with their children and dogs - they were veterinarians. After about 5 years, they moved upstate, and the Gordon's moved in. We have been friends with them ever since, but after 20 years there, they moved across town. Then Glauke and Eric moved in and had two children, who are now teenagers. They moved to Vermont two years ago, and the house was rented to a couple with three young children who used to bring us handmade presents. Then they bought a house and moved away. The house has been empty for nearly a year, but now has been sold. So we are awaiting the arrival of our new neighbors! I hope they will be as nice as all our other neighbors over the years!

Love this picture with the older house, the evergreens and snow falling. I like the story as well, the passing of time, the people and families that have lived and grown up there. Trace
Wonderful story of meeting new next-door neighbors and friends. I know you will welcome them to your neighborhood. I am surprised that the home sat vacant for a year as homes around here are sold within days listing and over asking price.

What a pretty photo with the snow falling, the snow covered bushes and the blue house. I love the story of families that have lived in that house through the years. I hope the new neighbors are as nice as the ones you have had previously. betsey
