Property Owners in Comox, B.C.

Today was a good day.. was taken out for lunch to a little hole in the wall called the Atlas Cafe. 'The food was great'.

After lunch Tim and I signed the papers to purchase the 1/2 acre we have been looking at. And then this afternoon Tim was told that our house plans have gone to the city for approval. He came home with a big smile on his face.

Later this afternoon, our new landlord Dorothy, took me out for coffee. Dorothy and Bill moved to the valley from Victoria less than a year ago and just purchased this 6 acre parcel of land about 8 min. out of town. They will be moving into the big "Anne of Green Gables' house on one corner of the property. And our little 'Cottage in the Woods' is on another corner. We can't see each other but we can get to each other's houses by walking thru the property or driving around which is a bit of a distance by road.

Bill has totally refurbished the Cottage - new flooors (no carpet), new toilets and sinks, new light fixtures and paint. It looks just great and feels almost like a new house. It has 3 bedrooms, 1 1/2 bath, laundryroom and kitchen family room together. No garage or anything so most of our stuff will go into storage on 23rd when the moving company brings the containers. Pictures to come soon.
