I have fallen in love. With a house. In a small town forty-one miles north of Denver there is a 2 bedroom Craftsman style bungalow. Beautiful built-ins. Hardwood floors. Enclosed front porch. Fireplace. Single car garage and garden sheds. Partially finished basement. Beautiful kitchen and bathrooms. I have already moved in and know where all of my stuff will go. In my head of course. And it's in my price range! Please, please, please, one of you with preapproved financing who wishes to move to Brookings call reloKatie for a grand tour of my house and buy it! Alas, the way the market is in Colorado this house I adore will likely be sold in short order. Sigh. It was lovely while it lasted.

About Me
- Bellona of Avalon
- Lacey, Washington, United States
- I was born in Colorado to a full-blooded Norwegian/American mother from North Dakota and a Cajun/Scottish father from Mississippi. Raised and educated in four states, eight public schools, and one liberal arts Lutheran college, I somehow ended up in South Dakota and was married to a mostly Dutch guy for twenty years. I then returned to Colorado for a seven year experiment living at high altitudes. I now call the Pacific Northwest home where I try to blend in with the natives driving my Subaru Outback and sporting hiking boots. I have two sons whom I adore beyond reason. The younger one lives with me and spends an inordinate amount of time on his computer creating video games and composing music. The elder one lives nearby with his amazing wife and their fluffy pup Gimli. I currently find myself without the companionship of a feline which feels odd to me. Technically I'm a grownup but I seldom behave like one. © 2007-2024 Carla VanBemmel
