Welcome to Slab Living! (For Sheldon and Louise!)

Congratulations to our beloved friends, Sheldon and Louise! They have purchased a new home and not just any kind of home but a home on a slab! Welcome to the Life Styles of the Slab and Famous!
As Bob and I know, the benefits of a slabilicious domicile are well documented. For one thing, you need never worry about a wet basement or pesky sump pumps as there is no basement to fill up with nasty water. Ditto no place for mildew or mold! No radon! And best of all, there is no basement to fill up with lots of unnecessary stuff like cans of half dried paint or piles of useless tools or broken furniture! Hoorah!
Here's a shot of the house straight down from front to back. It's modern! It's a slab! We can't wait to see what they do with their modern slab! I think I'm vicariously excited for them as they'll be renovatin' and restoratin' with the best of them. And learning the benefits of Open Slab Living!
We were delighted to be invited over on the day of their closing to witness the inaugural day of slabtastic living. As a thoughtful housewarming offering, Bob and I regifted a couple of lovely decorated cupcakes and a twenty six year old bottle of Thunderbird wine. (A friend gave us the Thunderbird when we first moved into Bridgewater. When we moved to the BauHaus Chicken Coop, we brought the bottle along with the inch or so of dust that had accumulated. They can possibly auction the wine as I'm certain it's a good vintage and god knows, it's old enough.) I'm sure Sheldon and Louise had a wild celebration!
