House hunting, pt. 26

Yes, we are still looking for a house to buy … I just haven’t been writing about it.

This evening we toured one of the nicest houses we’ve visited so far. It’s listed at about $15,000 less than the maximum that we can bid. Even so, I expect that the winning bid will exceed that maximum. The house appeared on the real estate websites last night, and today shoppers toured it nonstop. When we visited at 5:45, the realtor for the 7:00 showing was outside, shooting a video of the street. Samuel got away from us and ran back and forth in the front yard, so he probably will be featured in the video.

The house appeared to be rented out to some musicians. There was musical equipment everywhere. I scraped my leg on some instrument – possibly, a snare drum.
