We bought a brownstone, so we'll be sharing a three-hour fire wall with one neighbor. However, we're the first owners so hopefully it won't start crumbling around us as soon as we unpack our boxes.

The best thing for us is that the dog park is in walking distance. Apartment living hasn't been good for Titus's figure.

If you're driving and you really REALLY want to look at furniture, stop by Good's in Kewanee, IL on your way to Chicago.

Thanks for the recommendation--unfortunately, I didn't see it in time. We just got back yesterday, and the furniture expedition was quite successful. We sat on every sofa and sectional in Room and Board. We were in there for three hours. This is not too bad but it followed on the heels of three other stores.

At least I used to sell furniture at one time so it wasn't totally overwhelming. AND, when we got home there was a surprise for me outside my door. Pics to come . . .
