I have been pretty lucky in that respect, after several rental apartments, homes, etc., for the first few years we were married, I built the first house we owned with my own hands. We had been married for seven years, and I was a new general contractor. After building several houses, I built one for myself, and it was the first home we actually owned. That was 40+ years ago.
We have now owned four different homes, two of which I built myself. We like to look at new houses, sometimes with the idea that we might actually be considering moving. We would like to have a little more room, and I still have hopes of having another three car garage. ("just in case you haven't guessed, I'm a garage guy") In the last few days, we have had some family from out-of-town here, so we went looking at new houses with them a couple of different days. I couldn't help but notice when you walk through, and look around a new house, you always visualize how you would make use of the space, and make it your new home. I can almost see a Mustang in those three car garages. We could make it home, just let me prove it.
This is the last home I built myself. It was in Northern Utah, and had a three car garage. |
