Home Improvements

State College exists as an anomaly in these turbulent economic times. That's not to say that we've been immune to the crisis going on around us. President Graham Spanier did announce that there would be a pay-increase freeze for 2009. This area is called Happy Valley for a reason. Being able to weather the Depression and recessions in the past is one of the area's greatest strengths.

So, we are very happy to be relatively secure here. We are very happy with our new home and have already begun talking about improvements for this summer. Painting, planting, decorating, upgrading and furnishing... it sounds like a lot, so we'll have to do things little-by-little.

Before I forget, one of the things we're looking for is an awning for our deck. I found this company, SunSetter, and will have to look into their options in a little while.
