Sorry, my legions of fans, for the lack of posting! :-0
You may think wer're nuts, and we may be, but we may not be staying put in the loft. I'll detail the saga later, but since we're renting here until our house in CO gets sold or rented out, it's no big deal.
Lisa has a chance at a job in Albany. That's only a couple cities west of here (and about 2 hrs) . Kind of like moving from CO Springs to Fort Collins. It won't make any differenct for those who are eagerly looking forward to visiting - still lots to do, and Boston and NYC are a train ride away!
It was always a toss-up which we liked better, but it's really hard to choose when you don't have a job or anything forcing the decisions. Actually, we'd have definately chosen the really nice stone cottage that we looked at in Delmar (an Albany suburb) if we could have had our house sold.
Anyway, we're heading up there today for her interview tomorrow. I'll let her deal with the realtor here if we end up relocating. It'll only be the second time he almost got a commission out of us!
I'll have to change my description on this blog a little bit, though. ;-)
I used to think I could handle the vagabond life, but I find it very tiring. I must be getting old or something....
Just watching the news in Albany - they have a Fall Foliage Color Map as part of the weather report.

Sheesh, I'm getting dizzy trying to follow you around the country! Settle down already. The important thing is: Are there any decent Thai restaurants out there?
I'm glad you took my advice and used a different blogger template - looks nice! However, I have to take you to task for the same thing you dinged me for: post-to-post navigation! I finally figured out that "newer posts" and "older posts" lets you click through one post at a time. (Yes, I'm catching up on several days worth of entries at once - I'm a busy bee.)
We just may be insane!
Actually, we didn't want to admit that for people from CO, upstate NY is much more user friendly than central MA. At the loft, Lisa is afraid to go to the bus stop. Here she's not afraid to drive or take the bus. She thought urban life would be fun, but outside of say, Denver or Boston proper, it's just gritty, dirty, and claustrophobic!
There are several maintenance and construction issues at the lofts, too, that weren't all that apparent in our perusal before. One thing is, the building ventilation system causes a constant hum in half the unit. It was aggravating the cat and driving Lisa nuts. We already had someone downstairs say we can't use the tub because it leaks into his bathroom!
