New House

Hello!

I just got moved in a couple of days ago to the house we are renting here in McMinnville. I thought I would post some pics and show you what I got.



First thing to notice is why hasn't the landlord cut our dead grass? BUT... once you can see past the dead grass you will see a 9 bedroom, 3 bath house, fully equiped with 2 fridges, washer and drying, foosball table, and a trampoline (which you can kind of see in this second picture of our backyard.



You can also see th big porch. The house is still pretty dirty it was full of frat boys last year and was a big party house... or atleast that is what the neighbor lady has told us. But the kitchen has cleaned up really well and so has my room. I wish we had a vacuum and I wish I would have brought some old towels to wash the floors. I did some of the floorboards and walls and the counters and such So it is coming along.



It still feels really empty since it is such a large house and we don't have a surplus of pictures to hang on the wall or anything like that. But I'm sure that will improve with time. I am sharing a bathroom with 2 boys that have decided since there are 2 of them and one of me it is my responsibility to lower the toilet lid and so that is something I guess I will have to deal with but atleast the bathroom has a stall around the toilet so that it is more functional for 3 hyper-hydrated cross country athletes to use.



All in all it has been really fun and really nice living just off campus. It feels a lot more private even though we are only 100 meters or so from campus because people are wandering around the house at all hours like the dorms and because the house is so much like a maze and is just a collection of additions the house is really broken up and I don't even see anyone really since I am way off at the very end of all the additions around a bend in the road. I think it will work really well. We had already had some team get togethers here and baked some cake the first night here for one of the freshman boy's since it was his birthday. We have our team time trial in about an hour and a half so I should go get ready for that. It will be really interesting and fun to see the fitness level of all the athletes after a summer of training. I will keep you poseted.
