It's easy for us to get down about our housing situation, but I just have to look at a place like this that is just down the road from us and realize we really are fortunate. I've been very conscious of counting my blessings lately...
It does seem like you have no shortage of nice spots to visit. So good to hear you're keeping positive about things and I'm sure something will come along soon that will suit you perfectly.
