Our House

Its official. Bekah is a homeowner, one that I will marry soon. After an incredibly short time of searching, Bekah and I came across a foreclosed condo two blocks from Powderhorn park. The condo is in an old brownstone and was originally two apartment units that the association merged into one. The place is quite spacious and full of unique character. I can honestly say that the only reason the place worked out was due to an absolutely breath taking price tag, and when I say breath taking I mean that I still wake up four times a night and pinch my self to see if this has all been one big dream. It appears that the situation is not an aberration but an incredible blessing.

The Powderhorn neighborhood is an inner city, south Minneapolis community, centered around a large park which sits in the middle of the neighborhood. Powderhorn is a vibrant community known for its diversity and although it has historically been viewed as a "rough neighborhood", in the "margins of Minneapolis" there is a spirit of entrepreneurship that permeates through the community and is embodied by the plethora of successful Hispanic and African store fronts along lake street.

I am looking forward to many a weekend painting, refinishing floors, and deep cleaning the place over the next several months.
