Well, the mortgage guy is doing what he does. The escrow folks are doing what they do (holding our money?) And, we presume the current owners are finishing their remodeling.

Sunday, Monday and Wednesday the unveiling should proceed from open house to appraisal to inspection. The appointments have been made. In prep last weekend we walked along the beach to the next beach.

For those folks reading along home from the coast on the right of the map, I checked a few distances on Google maps. The house of our current efforts is roughly the same walk as from the doorstep of our Scituate cottage at 17 Spaulding Ave. to the Quarterdeck. On the way, maybe I can buy a popsicle at the market and weep myself into a nostalgic froth.

Next August 15, then, we’ll be in good shape to find out if the cure is in the water. Unless the cure is only in the Atlantic. Or maybe Lourdes.
