Enjoying the View While It Lasts

The other evening, my wife and I were out in our backyard, soaking in the Texas sunset. We couldn’t help but appreciate just how perfectly located our condo is—everything we need is just a short drive away. But let’s be honest, the real selling point? That sunset. From the moment she bought this place, it was love at first golden glow.

Funny enough, I had a condo in the same neighborhood first, but a few months later, she found this one—with the view. When we got married last year, I sold mine and moved into hers. And honestly? She made the right call. It’s a great spot, close to groceries, doctors, and all the essentials. But the best part? That warm, welcoming sunset at the end of the day, especially in the summer.

Of course, we both know change is coming. Eventually, a new neighborhood will rise, blocking our perfect view. But for now, we’re making the most of every breathtaking sunset while we can. Because if there’s one thing we’ve learned, it’s to savor the little things—before someone builds a house in front of them!
