The Durham Family Ancestral Home

Been spending way too much time with Google Maps Street View. There we have the family “home place” in the barrio in El Paso. When I get depressed about moving to lesser digs than The Continental – I’ll just “Remember the Barrio”.

Got my taxes all finished. I am SO old that I owe the fine state of Virginia Zero, Zip, Nada, None, Bupkis Taxes. What I surprise. I am getting all of my money back. Heck, Virginia even wanted to give me money. Low income credit. I couldn’t do that. I am not a low income person. I have just structured my income legally and craftily to minimize state tax. That added to the very generous deductions for just being an “old person”, made my taxable Virginia income about $400.

Carlton seems to be feeling better – I was worried last night. Considered that he might be getting pneumonia.

On the moving front, today I:

  • Emailed a Craigslister – this one a realtor – bet she will answer
  • Left a phone message
  • Filled up a trashcan with “stuff”
