uh okay uh do you live in a a single family dwelling as they call it
yeah i uh i'm buying my own home
okay what sort of house is it
um well it's a one story three bedroom two bath two car garage
with a single living area a large single living area
yeah
yeah
yeah
garage is that an actual closed in garage or is that carport type of thing
no it's a a closed in garage to attached to the house
okay
so that i can uh i can leave my home go into the garage get in the car and not get into any weather at all
never actually be out of the house
yeah around here they tell you if it if the advertisement for houses for sale says garage
uh-huh
it it it could mean anything from a uh part of the house all closed in to a uh uh nice corrugated fiberglass roof kind of hanging in the middle of the yard somewhere
oh you're kidding that's crazy
yeah most of them are carports you know they'll be attached to the to the to the house but it'll just be a an extension of roof to over you know one or two parking spaces where
to the home uh-huh
wow
uh-huh most of the time when i had when i was looking for a house matter of fact the
they would tell you if it were a carport or if it were um
if it were a detached garage
yeah
yeah
so
now y'all aren't quite getting all that flooding that Texas has been getting have you
ah yeah we're getting part of it uh-huh it's um
you're getting part of that uh uh
okay
it's really kind of odd we ah we had hoped not to be in too much of it and matter of fight matter of fact in in Texas
they have flood plain areas where it's every about every hundred years the area floods where the insurance companies won't insure you for it
um-hum yeah
what
like uh
like what is i'm trying to think of the name of that park
there's areas that are so bad about flooding that they just don't cover them
they yeah they wouldn't cut they will not issue flood insurance
huh
and i can i can see where there's some areas in Dallas that are definitely like that
yeah
but uh
you know come to think of it it's that way around here too i mean you know there there's nothing even vaguely resembling hills around here
oh no huh we have
which was real confusing when i first moved into this area because it
was it what kind of uh home are you in
well actually right now my wife and i are living uh campus housing
oh okay is it uh apartment style or uh-huh
yeah
they're apartment buildings one and two and three bedroom places uh be like you know
uh-huh
excuse me
like uh twenty five or thirty units per building and then something like uh
oh okay
twenty five thirty buildings
gosh
about half of them are
one bedroom places
uh-huh
there's a pretty good number of two bedroom places and then there's like uh fifteen or twenty three bedroom places
three bedroom uh-huh
but uh oh they're not really too bad they're they're basically cinder block places
well i was that's kind of what i had envisioned from uh visiting the ones in at North Texas University where my husband just graduated
but uh
yeah graduated in in what
uh physics
physics
PhD in physics
wow sounds like fun
oh yeah yeah
i i've got a physics couple of physics classes facing me this summer this summer so
uh actually they're they're very enlightening and they're a lot of fun
yeah uh from what i've seen of it i mean you know there's a lot of things that kind of dabble in the edges of physics before you actually get into the class
they are
yeah well most everything touches physics one way or another no matter what you do even if nobody tells you that's what it is it's it's physics
yeah
yeah i remember a a teacher in high school saying that uh he enjoyed physics because it it improved his uh his uh pool game
uh-huh oh yeah mathematics too but
uh anyway
yeah
uh back to housing what kind of a home would you and your wife look for
yeah
once uh once you finish schooling
um well
once we get out of school we're hoping to get into the mountains somewhere
oh really
probably out west um
uh-huh Oregon Oregon or Washington
yeah more than likely uh the rainy side of the mountains somewhere
uh-huh
oh that's a beautiful area
but uh um originally i'm from West Virginia in the Appalachian Mountains
uh-huh
so uh uh long since fell in love with living in the mountains but it'd probably be like a two story possibly even a three story if we build our own we might even get a little crazy and you know build into the side of a hill
oh i see
and do it the
that would probably
