Once upon a time there was a lovely townhouse sitting amongst the green of its grassy slice of pie. The lovely Maple Grove townhouse was filled with memories of happy family days having sheltered only one owner through times of joy and times of sadness, infancies and graduations, comings and goings. The lovely townhome had been loved and cared for throughout her life.
But a new era approached for the lovely townhome and it feared lovely would change to lonely. Its only owners were moving on in their lives and the lovely townhome could not join them. Whatever would she do? Lonely was not what she wanted. She wanted to once again shelter a family, provide an anchor for memories of little ones and grown ones, of gatherings that required her space.
"Ah," thought the lovely townhouse. "I shall proclaim to the world the wonders of my home, Red Fox Cove!"

And thus, the not to be lonely townhouse whispered in the real estate agent's ear, "There's a pool down the street all lovely and blue with inviting clean water heated just right. Across from the pool is the walking path to the lake with a fishing pier, canoe storage, and a big fire ring for toasting hot dogs and marshmallows on cool fall days." |  |

Drawing herself up ever so straight, the lovely townhome continued, "People live a long time in our friendly townhouses because they all own us. No renters allowed. But puppies and kittens are welcome to play."
"I don't know much about these money things that seem so important to the people who live here, but they say the association takes care of all the fun stuff for just $66.00 a month."
"Oh, and don't forget the great biking paths just blocks away. I've not been there, but the family has come back bubbly every time they've gone that way. I guess there's a park . . . Eagle Lake, I think, and there's lots of biking and hiking paths for adventurous types. Even golf they say, although chasing a ball with a flat headed stick makes little sense to me!"
"Will you find a new family for me?" she asks the agent. "Lonely I don't want to be!"
