Good solid day

Up and a walk to the park, then breakfast and a shower, then to a 10 am local appointment, paid on the spot, then back to the office to totally reenter an appraisal that had become corrupted somehow.  Got it done and send in time to leave for lunch with Roger and Carol Peden, great experience, wonderful people, good food.

Then quickly back to the office and pick up a file for Castro Valley.  There I inspected an Eichler home.  Some of you will know that for years Eichler homes were constructed in many California communities.  They had a design all their own, radiant heat with pipes in the slab floors and a small furnace in the garage to heat the water.  Most are still using original equipment after all these years.  The home I saw today was perfect, tastefully updated and yet the character of the Eichler home was maintained.  They sell for just under a million dollars thought they were first designed to be easy to buy and inexpensive.  Now they have such a following that the prices have risen rapidly.

Once I was through with the inspection I hit the road for Milpitas where Timothy was involved in his Christmas Program.  It was excellent and he did his part perfectly, of course. 

Then it was the drive home and I found Frys and got some Christmas shopping started. 

Now I'm home and going to bed.  First appointment is at 8:30 in the morning in nearby Oakley, then its off to Patterson to see a sale.  God is good with work even at this time of year when things are often very slow.

Love to all

Tim
