A Few Years Ago

A few years ago, I lived in downtown Washington DC in a 12th floor apartment that looked like this on the outside and the below on the inside. I grew basil and mint in containers on the porch. I think you can see the tip of the Washington Monument in this picture and the top of the Old Post Office building.  I was definitely downtown.

Then I lived in some hotels and apartments in Singapore, Jordan, and The Hague.  Like the one below in The Hague:

Before all of that, I lived in a house in South Carolina that looked like this:

It was an old fire station with one HUGE room, 12 or 14 foot ceilings and a tree growing in the middle of the room.

And before that I lived in Cleveland in a few houses that I can't find e-pictures of, but they were on typical city lots, 40 feet wide and 150 feet deep or less.

And before that I lived in North Carolina, Georgia, Massachusetts, and New York.

But now - I've settled down, I swear!  I'm living in the last place I want to ever live.  It's totally different from any place I've ever lived before with space and sunlight and trees and snow and wind.  And this weekend I'm going to get chickens!  Chickens!  A few years ago, I never would have imagined this!
