February 7

We continue to look at a lot of houses, in order to keep on top of the market so when we finally do sell we can act quickly.

One of today’s houses has a nice kitchen:

Yes, fisheye… the walls are not curved 🙂  I like to use the fisheye for these house-hunting shots because it gives a good representation of the feel of the room and captures a lot in a single shot.

Groundhog day!  I did not see my shadow today… in fact, there was ocean-effect fog & clouds on the south shore this morning as I approached Quincy.  And despite the lengthening days, it was dark already as I left work.  After a long day, I am glad to see the following sight:

Who needs a Stairway to Heaven?  I’ve got an elevator down to the first floor, the car, and home.

Well, I made it one whole month with Project 365!  I can’t say every picture is as interesting or as artistic as I might have hoped, but each day has a photo taken on that day.  Let’s see if I can keep it up.

Today’s photo is about house-hunting.  Some houses deserve to have stone lions along the walkway.  They are grand homes, the type of country place where you’d visit a wealthy uncle for a week and have your own room with a fireplace, and the staff would wake you at 10 for breakfast.

The house where we saw this lion (and its partner) was not such a house.  It is a nice house, lovingly modified and decorated by someone whose priorities are quite different from our own.  But it does not deserve a lion.
