1630 Ash Street Cottage Grove 2000-2006


Celia and I bought this house in August of 2000 with the money I received from selling my house in Eugene and the sale of her house in Cottage Grove.   Our wedding was planned for October 7th and we prematurely informed our neighbors that we were marred.   Celia would tell me jokingly that I was bound at this point to make her an honest woman.   There was over 1600 square feet, including three bedrooms, two bathrooms, kitchen with dinning room, living room, office and up stairs bedroom.   It had an attached garage and a separate shop building in the back, better known as the man's inter sanctum   The entire backyard was a garden.   In 2002 we took out an equity loan on this house and purchased 10 acres on Wildflower Lane in Douglas County to start a native plant nursery.  In 2006 we sold this house and moved to 10 acres at 855 Wildflower Lane just above the the 10 acres we bought in 2002.
