You need a motorized snake to do so.

I have used it a lot already and is is quite efficient. Will you please e-mail me your list?Evahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16831448349166435125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-287923374500556606.post-50281826021608722242015-01-29T22:50:11.597-05:002015-01-29T22:50:11.597-05:00I do like the East . . and the different seasons. ...I do like the East . . and the different seasons. Yes, Greg and I drove a lot! <br /><br />It's funny that the house is so new and clean but the washing machine is so old! That's a little frustrating. Is there a laundromat nearby in case you need it?dorinalouisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14997381262511104320noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-287923374500556606.post-3105340652704600372015-01-29T14:20:06.968-05:002015-01-29T14:20:06.968-05:00Wonderful selections!

We had a great time visiting missions that year!Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10928243120890335339noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-287923374500556606.post-85633704748362271532015-01-29T01:53:47.370-05:002015-01-29T01:53:47.370-05:00That is quite a distance.

Except the washing-machine in the garage. That is not good at all. It was very clean when we moved in. There was just one medicine cabinet Peter had to clean when he moved in. <br /><br />I think you need to go back to California :). But then you might miss the East.

You can walk here to to he post office and a few stores. It is safe, but depending on where you want to go, there a lots of cars! Too many for my taste. No, the public transportation out here is really bad. A few buses, but what takes 20 minutes by car, takes 2 hours by bus! Not very convenient. <br /><br />The house is very nice and we are so glad to have a small yard. <br /><br />I do try to have a certain amount of time for each child, especially for the younger ones. The older ones get more time from n the evening.

Your books are really nice . . and I lived in Santa Barbara for two years :) The mission is beautiful. Greg was up in Monterey. We did meet in CA. Santa Barbara and Monterey . . two very beautiful, romantic and magical places to fall in love :)<br /><br />That kitchen is beautiful! The countertop looks like marble. It also looks very clean! I hope it was clean for you and you didn't have to do a thing . . I wish you many delicious family meals and cooking times together there!<br /><br />Yes, we are supposedly in for a very big winter storm . . we'll see if the predictions are true. It started softly snowing for a little while this morning but has now stopped. Everyone is quite nervous about it . . I don't know why. It's not like NYC never gets big blizzards!!! Meanwhile you have the warm Santa Anas blowing and oranges to pick in your neighborhood! Isn't that amazing! Hmm. I've forgotten how much I love California :)dorinalouisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14997381262511104320noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-287923374500556606.post-79896887744500400942015-01-25T20:55:36.965-05:002015-01-25T20:55:36.965-05:00It always amazes me to see the combination of moun...It always amazes me to see the combination of mountains and palm trees! Do you find your neighborhood very walkable? I agree, I wouldn't want to drive in the big city either. Or how is public transportation?<br /><br />Your house does look bright and lovely! Enjoy. <br /><br />I think I would find it hard to focus on lessons if it still felt like vacation! A lesson question-- do you tend to spend a certain amount of time per child per day?And your books sound interesting!!!<br /><br />Take care,<br />BarbaraDeacon Patrickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01826386402925060912noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-287923374500556606.post-66775155901901324232015-01-25T08:04:09.031-05:002015-01-25T08:04:09.031-05:00Totally in love with your area and that kitchen is...Totally in love with your area and that kitchen is fab!<br /><br />Yay for libraries!!<br /><br />San xxSandra Annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16260644073051470011noreply@blogger.com
