The Great Sca Housing Search

Robyn and I have no idea where we're going to end up, but the housing search is on. We will almost surely remain within the city limits of Cincinnati... but the city has seemingly countless neighborhoods in a VERY wide variety of price ranges and situations. We have at least researched the possibility of purchasing an-almost-6000-square-foot Avondale mansion in need of serious love... a $14,000 Over-the-Rhine rowhouse that is in desperate need of windows to replace the current plywood... and a very nice home in Price Hill that we could probably just move into and enjoy. And all sorts of other possibilities in between.

What's gonna happen? We don't know. But we'd appreciate you praying that we'd come to some sort of conclusion of where God is leading us. We hear the call to the city, and we're pretty sure the call doesn't include Terrace Park (at the very least because we don't have $1.5 million to drop on new digs), but that still leaves an abundance of options. So, if you're the praying type and are willing to add us to your list, pray that the Spirit gives us clarity in our search for the "right" place.

Meanwhile...

Oh ye grand ol' homesteads, why must ye tempt me with thine meager pricetags? Dost thou not know mine weaknesses? Might thou make thyself available to thy servant to restore and grow old within?
