Unbelievable

06-15-02

I went and looked at the land this morning with the realtors. I was very encouraged by the whole thing - my worries that it would be too wet were put to rest. I took a ton of pictures and came back to get the following phone message and e-mail from my realtor:

Christy and Steve, I just got a call from Chuck Bartolo. The Songs have decided to take the land off the market. He lost his job and they have to rethink their plans. Back to the drawing board. I will be back 6/23. I will have my partner Audrey check the "hotsheet" for any new listings this week and will call after the 24. I feel as frustrated as both of you but "things" always work out for the best. Regards

I never felt quite as excited about this land as I thought I should. Maybe it was intuition. Bleh.

On the way there, I almost hit a deer. On the way home, I got a speeding ticket.

Oh damnit! What a bummer...this actually happened to us when we were looking for a house. We found one that had a complete recording studio as a separate building in the back yard. It was beautiful. We put a bid in, and a week later the owner decided he liked it too much to part with it and pulled it from the market.If it's any consolation, i like the house we DID get a lot better...

Oh, Christy, I'm so sorry to hear this. I can't believe your luck. I know this means your intuition was probably right, but I completely understand the frustration you're feeling. I'll keep lighting those candles...
