At Home in Hondo

Yeah, yeah, I know, we were supposed to be gone already, but this place is just so darn NICE!

Like I wrote last time, we were considering this CO-OP as a potential "winter home base" for many reasons. After much discussing, plan reviewing, and heart checking, we decided to buy in.  Having a lot here will allow us to have a moderate climate to winter in while we go exploring east and west. In the summers we can head north to cooler places.

The lot is 50 feet wide and 70 feet deep. It has a 60 X14 foot concrete parking pad/ driveway with a 5 X 20 foot concrete patio adjacent to the pad. There is a 12 X 10 foot shed. The shed has electric, an attic, three windows, two closets and two work benches. Should make a nice workshop for our hobbies.

Here's some pics of the lot.













The tree you see in the pics is a Texas Live Oak. It's an oak tree, but it's evergreen. No cleanup! It's placement is perfect. In the winter, when the sun is in the south, the parking pad is sunny. In the summer, when the sun is in the northern sky, the parking pad is shaded. So, nice and toasty in the cold months, and if we find ourselves here in the summer, we'll be sittin' purdy.
