Any other fun facts about yourself you’d like to share?

After 12 years in a condo in the Greenlease Cadillac building we are renovating a townhouse up on 30th street.  It hasn’t been touched since it was built in 1982 so we’re excited to make it our own, stay in the area and have not one, but two decks with great downtown views. Also, eager to be in closer proximity to the cemetery for our 11 year old Golden named Abby to let her run.
