Saturday July 16th

Laid around a good part of the day in preparation for the turkey supper. After the bird was well along in the oven Kay - the Ladies and myself went house hunting. A tract being developed not far away had five model houses all set up ready to move in and I show  on the enclosed Circular the various prices. Remember these have no cellars. All of these homes have Instant Hot Water and forced Air Heating. Some have built-in Electric Ovens and Dishwashers. Others none. Couldn't get over the amount of Closet Space these places have. There isn't a bit of wasted room. Most of them have an enclosed tub and shower glassed in either w/Sliding Doors or a regular door. Tiled of course. Each house has a two car garage which has to take the things you normally put in a cellar. These all have the overhead type of door. All the houses conform to a definite color scheme and no variation is allowed. This tract had 16 houses in various stages of construction and most will be sold before they are completed. Lots vary in size as will the price house thereon. Many home out here have the lawn sprinkler system built in to avoid hand watering. Simply turn on the valve and shut it off again. Another thing, you do your own landscaping except on the $20,000 homes
