Apartment Hunting and Refinance Appraisal
Nate and Crystal looked at two apartments today; one crummy in another town, one nice in our town. The crummy one had a bedroom ceiling so low that Nate could not stand up all the way. Maria spoke twice to the landlord of the nice apartment, who works at her college, and who knows Crystal and us. There is also another single woman interested in the nice apartment. The landlord will start taking applications tomorrow.
The appraisers (husband and wife team) came to look at our place today for refinance application. They will submit their information directly to the lender, so we don't know anything yet. We are entitled to a copy of the final appraisal.
1937 Road Trip
I only viewed a few pages due to slow performance. Watching the traffic lights on my wireless NIC, I think their server is overloaded tonight. Cute fusion of history and modern presentation, but too hard to enjoy due to performance. Still, it got me thinking about some items from my youth that would be nice to post

"In 1937, Nebraskan Joycolyn Knapp took a road trip with her family; in 2000, her grandson put her trip journal on the web. In addition to a mileage log and a list of expenditures (229 gallons of gas: $40.02), the journal contains dozens of photos of Depression-era America, including Yellowstone, New Orleans, and San Francisco. The postcards Grandma Knapp chose to save and the things she chose to document are wonderful both in themselves and for their portrayal of the American road trip before the birth of the interstate highway system.
