217/365 Story of Vince's House

"Vince wanted that house when it was for sale the last time," Roxanne tells us as she corrals their son Harry. Billy keeps making moves towards him--Billy thinks all trucks belong to him and Harry has one of Auggie's in his hands.

"Back when Drew bought it," Zelda calculates.

"Sure," Roxanne nods. "Yeah, and he thought about it but then he took a residency elsewhere and took his time getting back here. Once he did, he saw it was for sale again. It was like fate. He had it on the market a long time."

He sure did. Even rented it out a while. We didn't meet those folks either. We're a hard group sometimes, I think. Or maybe we just interact better with homeowners? That can't be it. Can it?

"Yeah, he already had ideas of what to do with the house before I knew him. And that house, though, it's all MAN."

Joy laughs. She'd described it this way when she'd walked through for an open house. It was quite the bachelor pad. Obnoxiously so, in fact.

"You could change things," Zelda suggests. "Little things, one by one."

"Yeah, but he already kind of had a vision, I don't want to mess with that."
