We took a walk with our dogs around the neighborhood and decided to walk past the house that was just built by the Extreme Makeover show.
The house is quite large with a nice array of solar panels – you can see some of the in this picture.
Okay, okay… the picture isn’t great – the sun was in the wrong position – will need to go back during an afternoon and get a better picture. Interestingly, the house next door had 2x4s holding some plastic in place on the roof, ostensibly to prevent leakage. I think there should be a show called “Extreme Repair” where 10-20 houses get much needed repairs. Just a thought.

Hmmm…makes me wonder how this family will now handle, financially, the additional taxes and homeowners' insurance costs and increased utility bills for all that extra square-footage, since they were portrayed as not having a lot of money. I like your group re-do idea. If they ever do a show like that where yard crews come out and cut back the overgrown, weed-filled jungle-yards of a group of neighbors, they could come to our street!
