I’m posting up at my favorite restaurant for outdoor dining.
I’m in for whatever
is out there – camping, hiking, I can’t get
enough!
From a chair on
my back patio.
I’d rather be out playing sports than watching.
If a game is on,
I’m watching!
I don’t care what!
I want a place with a lot of natural light – breezy and open.
I’m looking for something move-in ready with room to entertain.
I’d love a home with charm and maybe a little bit of "history."

I have reservations at this restaurant downtown I’ve been dying to try.
I’m planning to curl up on my back patio with a book and take in the view.
I think I might hit up a brewery with some friends
for a bit.
Just big enough for the family, and a backyard for our pets.
Something spacious—multiple floors and a large living space for entertaining.
A smaller space, but we’d love to have some acreage to enjoy and explore.
A sense of
community.
Location, location, location.
Cost of living.
In the great outdoors!
On a
foodie tour.
In a thriving arts and culture scene.
