Our Christmas gift to each other was the purchase of a 2nd home. We go to settlement Jan. 14. It is down on the coast of North Carolina. So I get to furnish and entire house, kitchen stuff, 3 bedrooms etc. my list is endless. It has beautiful wood floors and gray stone fireplace which I will play off my color choices from in furniture selections etc. We have an awesome deck and nice dock to walk to the end of a beautiful inlet that leads to the ocean, and great views from the house, my priority. Still maintain our home up North as I will not give up my gardens. So that will be my next years project. When I toured the property with the owner, he pointed out all the hydrangeas he planted and other shrubs. He said, he tagged them so they would not get hurt with the next owner, he said his wife thinks he is nuts. I said to him "you don't have to worry---that shrub is called and that one is and so on I went. I said don't worry, you should see my gardens, your garden will be taken care of well by me. I gave him my You Tube channel to look at. Like to think he chose us for his property because of our mutual interest. Although the property is only half acre and mostly pine trees, so easy clean up.
