My dad passed over 8 years ago. During that time, my mom has lived in my dad’s house.

The time has come now for my mom to sell the house. While she is not happy about it, she knows as she nears 80 years old, an apartment is a better option.

I have been out to NY twice already in two months to get the house prepped and my mom moved. And it has come with a lot of interesting discoveries and challenges.

As you can see from the photo above, it has a very nice attic with hardwood floors. The buyers I’m sure can put two bedrooms up there.

I used to make clubhouses in the attic (remember clubhouses?).

I found this old desk in the attic too:

And these old records!

And my dad’s old train sets!
