I would saw that is a "good luck" house for you then..if all is well.
I remember one of the reporter on Fox walking amongst the ruins of so many houses in Mississippi...and he stopped at one that had a FOR SALE sign on it..with a SOLD strip across it...he said that the people that bought it, closed on the Friday, before the Monday hurricane...and all that was left was the foundation....jeez..my heart hurt for them.
I AM glad for you...and I love antiques...I can't afford as many as I would like, but I just love getting a "piece" now and then.
It has seemed a good luck house. Every thing in the process was going smoothly. Somebody had told me that into every closing a little rain must fall, and then this hurricane came up. Closing was scheduled for NEXT friday fortunately. Looks like it will be a little delayed, but I think all will be well.
It has black and white ceramic tile and is crying out for art-deco.
