Trust me. We don't care about Iowa.
You can keep it. 😄
Spread the word, tell all your friends, shingle it into your roof with light colored shingles. It truly is a horrible place.

Wood is expensive these days, especially good hardwood, might not be all that cheap.
To be able to use/get the ‘Jeep’ branding is probably a few dollars in and of itself, sadly…

Cheers,

You should see some of the shit my builders have been finding as they peel back the layers on my house. Yesterday was old fire damage.

We stood around looking at it, trying to guess what century it took place in. 🤓
The older the home the more interesting it can get. I'll always remember my mom taking me to the home my grandmother was born (1904) in but a lot older than that since it was one of the original homes built around the fort constructed in the 1750s.

They were fixing some siding and underneath was the original logs of a log cabin. Guess the building codes back when they added the siding used the old if it ain't broke no need to fix it theory:).

Hey we tell all the potential transplants stuff like that all the time now here in the FL Panhandle - things like the high humidity in the summer can kill you, hurricanes are a weekly event and if you really want to live in Florida go south we still get snow here:), pics to prove it this year with our 8".

Yep. The house my mom grew up in had this huge, almost 20" transition between the dining room and the living room. I never paid any attention to it. My grandmother had told me that part of the house was the original build, and that it was made of logs. That transition area used to be the exterior wall. I would have had no idea any part of the house had logs in it.
