Our house in winter

This was on our second trip to see houses; we came up here laser-focused on buying a different house. But things looked different on the return viewing; the original one somehow shrank in size and diminished in appeal. And the corollary was that this one grew not only in size but in its allure. And since I was less tired and mentally paralyzed this time (day one of house searching took us to over a dozen houses; we saw this one at day's end when I could barely remember my own name) , I could see this house for what it truly was (I think Nick knew all along.)
