The thing is, we don't over-cool or over-heat our home. Many people around here seem to cool their home to <70deg. We keep ours at 78deg in the summer. Similarly, we only heat to 68deg in the winter. The savings from wearing a few more clothes in winter, and a few less in summer, is probably >$100 per month.

Thrilled for you, great place to take the kids and relax. We always had lake camps to spend the weekend during my childhood. My best memories were there.

We have about 1.25 acres of land, with a 3 bed, 2 bath Double wide on it at the mo! (proper trailer trash me!) But looking into zoning to see if we can build on our land, if not we will be moving in the next 1-2 years (after bits and pieces of work that need to be done are!) but this is our first place and was a steal when we bought it, you have to start somewhere (especially when I am not working yet!) nice and peaceful here and a nice neighbourhood all told!)

I couldn't care less how many square feet I have it's a house but if you want a larf I have a bar in my living room and an in-wall fish tank like you see in chinese restaurants. No we didn't put these in we inherited them with the house. They're satisfyingly naff.

1700 sq feet is more than enough for us.

It's really nice to see all the different house styles.
Thanks, Partystar. We do like our house, we have the wrap around porch which, so far we have not had skunks or anything take up residence in. We did have an armadillo last year but haven't seen one so far this year.
Jan - I really really like your house too! Something very woodsy and appealing about it!
