Anyone spare $80k for me?
http://www.realtor.ca/propertyDetails.aspx?propertyId=890502...
This is my great gramma's house in PEI, she's gone into an old folks home now. Her 1 son died a few years ago and the other (my grampa) is in
Ontario. My aunt who still lives out there is selling it 
I took a bunch of photos of the farm & area when I was last there 7 years ago. Doesn't look like I'll get to sleep in the old ricketty bed any more

A lot of people ask me what kind of music I like. I love "soul music". My "soul music" isn’t a style, genre or niche. It’s music that is genuine. It’s
a painful lyric, a dirty bassline, it’s a harrowing vocal, it’s feedback, it’s an anthem, it’s a love song, it’s anarchy. I’ve got my personal
favourites but in the end it doesn’t matter who or where it comes from... so long as it’s good and it's real.

wow, so how long has that home been in the family?
kind of a shame to see it go.
If I fail math, there goes my chance at a good job and a happy life full of hard work.

That sucks bro. Been down that road a while back and it still makes me sad thinking about ol' great gram's farmhouse. Get all the pics you can and
occasionally visit if ya can later in life. It kind of heals the wounds you may be feeling right now.
Each aspect of the soul has it's own part to play, but the ideal is harmonious agreement with reason and control.

Sorry to hear that mike
Living a life kept shut by a dream,
I'm reaching out to grasp my reality.
Hands of time wrap tight around my neck, and hit me so hard,
leaving me eyes black.
staring at a ceiling,
wondering why i never left,
penning words in a notebook,
wondering why haven't slept.
sanity is tapping in a cell
inside my fucking head.
begging for redemption
after hearing what was said.
the nights, they will not sleep
cause the days, have played for keeps.

I think the entire 100 years or so since it was built. I don't even think have the decor has changed in half a century, looking at old photos around
the house you see the same couch & wall mountings lol.
One of her sons was in WWII and there's old navy photos laying around, the one who was going to inherit the house was a fisherman pretty much right up
to the time he drank himself to death. So his wife gets the house & nobody is using it, selling it off.
My mom wants it too but she's broke. She still gets her lot of land inherited from her dad but there's no history or house on that part of the
property. They own a fairly large chunk of land all the way down to the water. Any summer we didn't go up north fishing we went down east for a
couple weeks, I always stayed at this house while everyone else would stay down the hill at the fisherman uncle's house.

Sorry to hear you're not able to keep the place somehow.
