If so how was it??

Did the house seem molested like lots was done to it you wouldnt have done???

A house we used to live in IN THE 80s now looks like crap.. The latest plastic windows,siding,etc..... IF I WAS ABLE TO AND I MOVED BACK IN,I WOULD TRY TO MAKE IT AS MUCH AS I COULD LIKE IT DID IN 1980 when we lived there before...... THE WORLD DIED IN THE 80s AND BECAME TOTAL CRAP....

No, but the house we grew up in that my parents sold in the late 90's, my oldest sister just a couple of years ago went to a party there, she went to school with the lady that bought it. Amazingly the living room, main hallway, and staircase carpet was the same carpet that my parents had put in back in the 80s, They also had the same counter top in the main bathroom. She took and shared pics with us so it was pretty neat seeing it.

I've driven by the house a few times over the years, the last time was when my daughter was about 12, we went on a road trip so she could see where I grew up and the schools I went to. They have had new garage doors put in and a new front door, which look nice.

I went by my old house in Massachusetts recently. Nothing really has changed, except for a little bit of the outside.

I became friends with a lady about 10 years ago who lived in the same apartment building that I lived in when I first came to LA in the mid 80's !

Not the exact same apartment but on the same floor and only two doors down! It was a trip at first when I would visit her!!!

Brought back good old memories of me being young and wide eyed,

being newly married and living in a whole new state !!

No, but I always wanted to go back to my Dad's old house and see if our height cart is still there.

No, but we went into my first home years ago. Basically, my parents got to be friends with the couple that bought our first home. We went in there a few times after they bought it and (true story) were growing marijuana in the bedroom that was a my playroom. The friendship didn't last long if I recall, we got together with them a few times, they came to our new house a few times and vice versa.

I wouldn't buy either of my childhood homes because they are now in bad neighborhoods with gang members.

I have an older adult lady friend who lived in New York growing up, and now she lives in the same town and state as me which is New Hampshire.

And I know somebody who is from Pennsylvania.

Last month, my dad drove by the house he grew-up in in Garfield Heights. The house which was yellow now has grey vinyl siding. I didn't like it at first, but as I thought about it...that color seems to work since it is a Victorian color...but it looked like the owners weren't home. Maybe their cars are in the garage or the family went to dinner...

But I don't want to live in Garfield Heights now due to it's deterioration once City View Center opened...but with K-Mart gone, maybe they can expand the street that's on City View Center. Also...it didn't help that there was a stand-off two doors down where my Papa (That's who we called grandpa on my father's side) once lived.

But... I do want to use Papa's House as my dream house once I get a chance to build where my Papa had property.
