    Thoughts on casitas...

    It's not just the older homes. We are in Northpark. I think the house was built in 2001. It is such a change from where we lived in Maryland. Our home there was built in '86. It was really high quality construction. We had very few problems in 8 years we lived there. It is disappointing...

    Thoughts on casitas...

    JoonB I agree with you about the mudrooms. Although it doesn't snow here and there isn't much rain, it would still be useful. I tried putting a shoe rack in the garage right outside the door, but my kids still end up tracking sand from the playground through the house all the time...

    Portola Springs is right next to the Irvine Landfill

    My husband and I noticed the landfill several months ago while driving home from the opening of the models at Portola Springs. When we got home, I googled the Bee Canyon Landfill, and, from what I understand, it is a relatively new landfill. So, there will probably be many, many years worth of...
