Architects dream, contractors nightmare.

Basically the same as any of the home improvement projects my wife comes up with for me...

I have difficulty cutting straight lines, even with the damn line drawn on the material. Hell, I'm doing good to fix nail holes in drywall...

So we pay her youngest son to do the work. He built homes for James Engle here in KC and one of his houses took the top honor in the parade of homes.

How do homes "parade?" Are we talking mobile homes?

Nope. It's a bunch of people that pick houses all over the country for their 'parade'

Why they call a cross-country road trip a parade, I'll never understand.

Twice a year the builders have a 'display' if you will, of new homes/models/designs that is open to the public for the great unwashed to 'parade' through and gawk at places they could live in, if they made enough money.

Most of them start at $400k and go up to over $1.5M, so for most of the people in KC, they are places that are really out of reach. This area has a problem with affordable housing, everything that is being built starts in the range of $300-$400k. There isn't much in the $150k or lower range, unless it's in the 'hood or a duplex.

There are several mobile home parks around... one was on the news last night, it looked like a dump with trash and empty (?) trailers. It's owned by a company in Cali, and the city has had it with the fires and police calls for service out there, over 400 in one year.

I'd solve it for them.... 'napalm, napalm sticks like glue/sticks to the Commie and the friendly farmer too..'
