                               Casa New Jersey

Before going to work, we stopped by Casa New Jersey so I could take pictures
of the “empty” house (it wasn't completely empty—the previous owners left a
few “things” behind, where “things” can be read as “stuff we now classify as
garbage”).

Most of the junk left behind was upstairs in the Kids' Room, although The
Kids were more than happy to keep it.

Too bad. It's junk. And what wasn't junk (like the large pieces of plywood
used to cover the windows during a hurricane) is too useful to let them have
at it.

One of the more dangerous items found was a rusty machete in a stand of
bamboo at the far corner of the lot, which I jokingly called our own little
slice of Southeast Asia.

And in the Master Bedroom, the previous owners were kind enough to leave a
painting for us.

How nice.

The next few days will be spent cleaning up the remaining “stuff” and the
actual move will happen next week.
