Update : New house, old pond......
Comments (5)Hello again scottspond and teri904, very nice to hear from you both once again. Thanks for answering once again, as always itÂs very much appreciated. Scottspond : Thanks for the tips, The shower drain is an excellent idea (although most I've seen are side entry so IÂll have to have a look at the plumb shop tomorrow) I'll try and pick one up in the morning and give it a try. Teri904 : Sadly I've not had much chance yet. As I mentioned in my post, it's been pouring with rain since I last posted. Tonight is the first evening I've arrived home and it's been dry. On the odd occasion when we've had a break in the weather I've been getting the pre-filter installed. This weekend is not looking good weather wise either. When I do get to it, I'll post plenty of photos here. I took the chance this evening to take some photos of the pre-filter I'll pop them in a new post shortly.

Comments (1)It looks like Levitt and Sons, LLC word can stand the test of time when it came to my wife and I getting our $500 Travel Reimbursement check only 2 days later than the estimated 30 days! The check was in our PO Box today. I certainly hope that the people that have already moved into their "Seasons at Prince Creek West" homes don't have to wait too much longer for their Clubhouse Center that they were told about in mid 2006. I'll be going back to Murrells Inlet, SC soon, so I'll be sure to peek in to see what progress is being made.

Comments (29)I'm so glad you posted photos. You home is beautiful, may you have many, many years of happiness there. ....and on a practical note..may your Houston home sell quickly, and your settlement be a breeze. The snow in the photos surprised me since I didn't realize it snowed in SC, but then I looked again and noticed that it looks like a wet snow, the kind that doesn't last long. But how nice to have snow on Christmas. Even here in the colder clime of the north (Philadelphia area) we don't have snow on Christmas all that often....See Morere-finishing honey oak stick floors
Comments (4)The floors have bevels on them. That indicates it is factory finished. Before you decide to go ahead and have them refinished, you might want to find out if they are engineered hardwood (thin layer of 'hard' wood on top sitting on plied wood underneath) or if they are thin solid hardwood (can be as thin as 5/8". And then there is the finish. It *might be Aluminum Oxide...which makes this more difficult to refinish (not impossible...but more time consuming and more expensive). Before you do anything, please check to see what TYPE of wood you have and whether or not it can be refinished. I think you have red oak in semi-gloss finish in a clear coat. I don't see the oil finish 'amber' here. Mind you the clashing gray colour on the walls isn't helping the floors....See MoreFocal Point Hardware
