New lake house

Guest post written by Arlene Henderson

Even though it's too late to enjoy it this year, we just signed the papers to buy a lake house of our own. I grew up on a lake so it's been a dream of mine for a long time to have a lake home to go to on vacation and on the weekends.

But before we get it ready for next summer we have a whole lot of renovating that we need to do. It isn't in great shop and was a rental property for the past decade or so, so it hasnt' really been taken care of. But it's at a great spot so we just had to take it.

Before we did anything else, we wanted to make sure and fix the outside of it before the weather got too cold. We can always come when the weather's cold to work on stuff in teh rooms inside.

We had some sears home vinyl siding installed a few weeks ago and the house already looks so much better. It was kind of an eyesore before and I definitely don't think that's the case now.

In the spring we're planning on building a dock for our boat and fishing.
