For the 39 years that I've been alive on this planet I've been a renter in Santa Cruz. On Friday I closed escrow on the house I've been raising my family in for the last 7.5 years. I am beyond grateful for this opportunity to own dirt in the middle of the city of Santa Cruz which I never thought would have been possible but here I am.

Yay me!!   :smt005

Oh, and if you know anybody who is looking for a 1 bedroom studio in Santa Cruz let me know...Available starting January 1st.

Congratulations!  Now your thoughts of fishing will turn to... cleaning out the gutters, checking the termite traps, and and and.  :smt003

COngrats man!.. Were almost the same age and plan to have that dream come true also. Unfortunately its going to have to be in another state...  It seems like I always miss the boat when buying low or have unexpected withdrawals from my $$.

Hopefully by mid next year Ill make a similar post.
