Sunday, April 25, 2004 My Perfect Summer Home We saw a great home on the Gainesville Parade of Homes today. How the front, it looks like a standard home design, but the over-large front doors open instead into an interior courtyard that is half-covered porch and half-screened lanai. All of the rooms of the house are built around the courtyard, with a pool and fountain, including a separate cabana style guest bedroom/office area. Of course, it was grossly overpriced, being as it was in a neighborhood almost exclusively for doctors and lawyers, and it was shoehorned into a lot that allowed only for a back yard that served as a diorama for the exterior windows, but it sure was beautiful. Also swung back by the book sale to look for more deals. Saw Piper, who was down from Philly for a visit. ------------------------------------------------
