We came back to the US in 1990 when
Bob was promoted to Mobil R&D Corp in Princeton. We settled in Yardley just
across the river, buying an old Victorian twin at 10
Reading Ave. Diane attended Westminster Choir college, also in
Princeton. In 1995 Bob was transferred to Mobil Corporate in Fairfax, VA.
After a decade in DC's Foxhall
village, Bob and Diane sold 1413 Foxhall Rd
in summer 2005 and relocated back to Texas. We had enjoyed the charm
of that Victorian twin, as we had our other Victorian twin
in Yardley PA
Our
home at 14923 Aspen Hills Drive
in Clear Lake is all one level, with a fan-cooled patio and
a pool out back.
Meagan and Edvin also sold their Anacostia home in DC quickly and moved
down Labor Day weekend 2005. Diane is enjoying being close to her large Davis
family clan along a LaPorte - Galveston axis. We
enjoy hosting reunions / parties / guest stays at our home.
Colin graduated at U. Maryland
at Eastern Shore. While in school he had free use of a DC basement apartment
that he and Bob totally remodeled from just a shell - gave him a place
to keep his stuff until he graduated.
Bob went on assignment to Washington
State in late 2005 through mid-2006.
During that time he stayed in
BirchBayGetAway.com,
a block off Birch Bay Dr. We also bought (and since sold)
Lots 141 & 142 fully-developed with utilities - at "Latitude 49",
with a magnificent central three-building club-house.
One of Bob's fellow design engineers recommended using
inexpensive
3D
tools that he used to design a new
custom home. These
object-based tools make custom
affordable with translucent views and
solid 3D renderings..
First Bob will practice designing a small
Japanese
bath house at Birch Bay Get Away - just to get the techniques down- to do
a complete Bill of Materials and cut dimensions from 3D-drawings, to
minimize all wood wastage. |
