Parade of Homes 2010! First installment.
Sep. 1st, 2010 12:44 amWe had an adventure of a different kind this weekend, one that didn't involve Red Bull (
kavieshana's contribution): The Parade of Homes 2010!
If you're wondering what became of last year, they changed the format from just seven or eight luxury houses all on the same street to a lot more, in all different price ranges, spread out all over town. And, rumor had it, most of them were unfurnished. None of us could see the appeal of that, so unanimously voted to give it a miss.
This year it's the same deal, except the homes are furnished and for the most part clustered in at least the same neighborhood. And totally free (hoping to lure in more potential buyers), so what better way for a trio of penny pinchers to spend the day?
I should warn you, the benefit of it being free means we might be visiting a different neighborhood some other time, so this might just be the first installment. In fact, this will only be the first installment of the first installment, or I might crash LJ's servers. I assure you, there's plenty in this one for your amusement.
Massive amount of pictures behind the cut -- but also much less of me blathering on. ( ::I mean it. If a picture is worth a thousand words, I've got "War and Peace" in here:: )
That's about halfway. Stay tuned for the conclusion of the first installment!
