I would be over the moon to see you at one. And you could look as aloof and self-contained as you liked, I'd still say hi. :)

Central air does seem wonderful, from what I hear. It might not make sense to have it installed in this old house, if it's even possible, and before anything else I want a solar roof (in the list of Big Improvements), but I'll probably price it one of these days, just to see.

Dogs are an excellent priority.
