High Flying Homes - 02/20/08 01:02 PM

Airparks are becoming surprisingly more common across the U.S. There are more than 400 airparks nationwide, approximately 35 in Texas, and 6 in San Antonio. Some are located in remote areas with ownership shared by a few people. But some are much larger, such as Spruce Creek in Daytona Beach, Florida. Spruce Creek has 1,200 homesites and multiple runways. One benefit is that instead of keeping a plane at a public airport and

Way Cool 1970's Decor - 02/18/08 07:09 PM
Refrigerators, sinks, stoves in Avacado Green or Harvest Gold. Shag carpeting, also in avacado or gold, kept fluffy by a carpet rake. Dark panelling in the den, carpet in the bathroom. Lava lamps.

And now when I preview or show homes, if these things are present, they are considered to be ugly, outdated, must be replaced or a redecorating allowance considered. Even before those Harvest Gold, Avacado Green days, "wall to wall carpet" was worthy of
