Contract Accepted!

After two helter skelter days of looking at homes in the Knoxville area, we made an offer on one we fell in love with.  Our offer was accepted!  Praise God.

Our realtor is Jackie Price---a real pro.  He got us exactly what we wanted.  Thank you, Jackie!

It has a nice front porch.  That is a weeping cherry tree in the front yard.

A nice mantel and gas fireplace with instant electric starter

A Formal Sitting Area...Wood Flooring Throughout.

Eat-In Kitchen Off of the Living Area Opens Up to The Rear Deck and Back Yard

We are Trying to Relax a Little Today and Tomorrow Before Heading Back to Texas.  Whew!

Helter Skelter.......

Wow!---it's great to get the chance to blog again.  Every day has been crammed full of activity early morning to night.  We have been exhausted.  But, we were able to make an offer on a home here in Knoxville yesterday, and we were just notified that the seller has accepted it!

In the meantime, here are a few pics of our trip so far.....

This is me---last Friday night before beddie-bye...Cindy was gonna help me with my hair, which is lengthening nicely, don't you think?  Ha.

She's Crazy About Me!

OK, The Back Looks Pretty Good

The Finished Product is a Masterpiece!


Saturday Morning, Dallas Central Expressway, 4:00 AM---Atlanta, Here We Come!

Oh, Boy---Here Come the Torrential Rains

After a 14 Hour Drive, Cindy and I Arrive at My Mom's Retirement Village in Atlanta...Pretty Nice, Huh?

The Grounds Are Beautiful---Spring Has Sprung!



This is the View From Mom's Apartment Overlooking the Pool and Waterfall.  There are Fish in the Pool.  Can You See the Phony Owl Standing Guard?


My 88 Year Old Mom Says "Don't Take My Picture!"  Ha.
