Moving day
We drove up to Longview to help Trevor move into his studio apartment. It is located above a business in a historic building. Yeah it's old but it has character. The carpet and vinyl were replaced prior to Trevor moving in so it looks and feels nice and clean. Oh yeah, the Pet/Pawn shop just across the street makes the location so convenient.
The location of this apartment is actually great because it is within walking distance to school. It beats driving 45 minutes each way, everyday.
This little kitchen unit is a gem. I have never seen anything like it, the stove and oven are on the left with a sink in the middle. On the right is a small counter space with a refrigerator below. Fortunately there is a regular refrigerator.
The view!
We all helped Trevor unpack his kitchen. It took about 3 minutes. He has a small saucepan to make his favorite food, Top Ramen and a little set of dishes given to him by his aunt Alisha for his birthday. She also gave him a sponge, dish cloths and soap with hopes that he will actually wash the dishes. 
We were having a great time but all good things must come to an end. Trevor thought he might go down to the Goodwill (which is also conveniently located within walking distance) to find some home decor. Next time we visit we will see how that went.

Ahhhh....were you sad to see him go? I loved his new place. You were right....it had character! What an exciting, fun time for him.

How fun and exciting, but probably a little bitter sweet too! I think it's a nice starter place. Better to have a place with a little character, I think that you appreciate things more when you do get to upgrade. One day in the not to distant future I hope that we will be able to see Devon in a place of his own. It's so good to keep up with you through the blog, I feel less far away.
