Bushes Close On Second Home
10151 Daria Place, for the Secret Service to live in or… who knows?
I Heart Gordon Keith & More Media En Route To Dallas To See Bush Home
I should have posted this yesterday but, ah, we had the D holiday party. Beauty of the web is I will soon be able to post a link for you right here. Gordon Keith was kind enough to have me on his show to chat up chez Bush. He also had a hysterical visit with Santa, who I secretly slipped my Christmas list. (Santa said something about dreaming on, then passed the flask.) Speaking of house dreams, folks on Daria Place may be itching to clear the media from their cul de sac, but should be thankful they are not in the Albany Park section of Chicago. Might as well set up a few tea and crumpet stands because more media are on their way to Dallas: BBC World Service Radio is making a documentary about the Bush legacy and will be in Dallas in the next couple weeks.
Storm Windows? In Texas???
See, I think storm windows are under-appreciated. Particularly when a house has historic windows, good storm windows can preserve the appearance of the house and cut down significantly on air infiltration and noise. Normally less expensive than new windows. And I also wonder if they’re not a deterrent to break-ins. There were existing storm windows at 802 Salmon, and Chas & Jack decided to paint the frames to complement the trim colors and keep them everywhere but on the front facade.
