Yeah, I keep drooling over Austin roses periodically. :) I was thinking that the 3rd picture with the yellow one might be The Pilgrim, this one has lemon-yellow middle and from some The Pilgrim photos it looks like it has to be more towards peachy? The last one could possibly be as well Austin, although I had the impression that most Austins have rather large blooms, and this one doesn't, the size of one bloom is maybe 2-3 inches. Not sure about the 2nd one, but 1st and 4th one had some remnants of a label, which did not look like typical Austin's label, too bad the only thing written on those was "Rose" and a pic of some unrecognizable color rose... Bah, somebody in the plant store really was a captain obvious... :)

1406. Fireplace Condition Safety Item. The flue is open into the attic; blocked by insulation. Recommend that a fireplace specialist permanently seal the opening with steel to prevent accidental heat or flames from entering the flue and attic spaces for safety. ====Fire hazard. My old house had signs of a previous attic fire. Did you ever have a chimney sweep inspect your chimney? 803. Walls Seek Further Review. 1.) Active leaking observed at the foundation wall. The framing at this area was extremely wet. Recommend repairs as needed. 2.) Efflorescence observed at foundation perimeter; this is a mineral deposit left behind from exterior water infiltration, recommend consulting sellers as to moisture problems or a licensed contractor for review. See gutter and carport slab comments. ===Well, there is leaking and the inspector thinks it might be from the gutters and carport slab. How do the gutters drain? . Some center posts have been removed and replaced with stacked blocks which may allow settlement to occur. Client is advised to consult licensed building contractor for additional information prior to closing. ===Is this in a basement or crawl space? Sounds like there is a support problem. . 1.) Flexible plastic drain tubing has been installed from the laundry is improperly connected into the plumbing waste lines near the hatch opening under the bathroom; improper or missing fitting noted. This line is also not properly sloped/supported for positive drainage. Evidence of leaking noted at the improper connection. 2.) Active drip type leak also observed at t\supply pipe fitting under the center bathroom. Recommend further review or repairs as needed by a qualified licensed plumber ===Someone played do-it-yourself-plumbing and didn't know what they were doing. If I was buying, I sure would like a plumber to go through the whole house first to see if there is any other diy. 1812. Distribution/ Ducts Repairs Needed. Ducts are lying on the ground at some areas. Recommend securing to framing or excavating under the ducts to prevent moisture and mold accumulation. Recommend review/repairs as required by a qualified licensed HVAC contractor. ===Ok, sounds like crawl space. And you have been losing heat/cooling through your ducts. Does this help?

We are selling a cottage on the river. When we bought it 10 years ago, we didn't have an inspection. I don't think they were as common as they are now. This was originally a fishing shack and had been added onto over the years until it was a fully equipped cottage. Anyway, the buyers had a home inspection, a septic system inspection and a termite inspection. They found that only the toilet went to the holding tank. All the other gray water went under the house to end up in the river. We had no way of knowing this. They buyers got an estimate for this to be corrected. The termite inspector found evidence of termites and this will cost about $800 to be treated. We had to install baseboard heating in every room of the house that didn't have heat in order for the house inspector to consider the rooms in the total square footage. (If the room didn't have heat, they couldn't list it as a room, only a shed.) Also, one of the contingencies that the buyers included in the agreement was that the house should appraise at or above the selling price. The appraiser was there and according to our realtor, the appraisal was "good." I guess that means the sale will go on as scheduled. Since the buyers paid for the appraisal, they are not obligated to tell us what it appraised for. (We're curious, though.) The buyers requested a credit at closing for the plumbing work and the termite treatment which will amount to about $5,000. Since they are going to do some remodeling, they wanted to have the credit and have it done when the remodeling was completed. We agreed and everything looks like it will go through as planned. Yay!

Vamp, I don't think we'll see it in our lifetime. The qualities of color on a monitor happen because of an emitted light source. The color of paint chips and painted walls hit our eyeballs and registers as color because of the light that reflects off of those surfaces. It's a huge gap spanning physics, chemistry, and maybe even physio/psychological factors that technology would have to bridge. I think the closest we're going to get is massive, cross-platform, calibration. Meaning I think it is realistic to believe that we can get to the point that we are all viewing on our monitors what is technically, measurably the same color. Whether we could all agree that it is indeed the same color is where those physio/psychological factors come into play. Perhaps the future holds color acuity profiles that work in tandem with ICC profiles (profiles you make for you computer with the objective of color constancy). We could let justgotabme, justgotab herself all she wants to thanks to her personalized color acuity profile. On my end I could see the color the same way she does and compare it to my own color acuity profile. I could see how it differs. How it's similar. I could then structure a vocabulary to 'speak color' in a way that is unique and custom for justgota. Her color acuity might be identical or very similar to a majority of the population -- or not. Custom color acuity profiles built into each platform means it doesn't matter how other people process the sensation of color. In a sense could say we are all color blind. At the same time, in a sense, we all have extraordinary color acuity and sensitivity. Either way or both ways, it only comes in to question when our personal perceptions of color are put in the position where they have to be shared with other beings who too experience color as a sensation --- and can describe that sensation --- and argue it.
