Hi Trudy,

I numbers crunch sorta, but it is kind of a free form thing that is in my head. I do not do a spreadsheet or anything like that. I just kind of see the numbers inside my head and then I go get a pencil if the possibilites are there. To me, at first glance, this one looks like it would be more expensive than buying some of the traditional homes.

Of course, energy savings could end up being a significant factor, but there would be the cost of somebody getting the old one out of the way. That probably is not cheap.

Well, I guess there is always the Sawzall. ......just kidding.....I think........ but..........might be fun huh? Can't you just see a big party with invitations going out all over, saying, "BYORS" (Bring Your Own Reciprocating Saw) Of course, after the party is over, the clean up might be a real problem.

Seriously, I do think the historic side is a lovely area. We are thinking of a second home and have the historic side under serious consideration. Can't quite pry loose from Cincinnati full time. And I think eventually there will be more people weighing the costs of replacement against what costs may be to update some of the homes there. I also think there are homes there in great condition already. I think there is something for just about everybody in TV. Quite a range of choices.
