Directed Day Dreaming

On a rainy Sunday, 3 months ago, I surfed onto a real estate website.  My sister was looking at condos with her boyfriend and it was fun directed day-dreaming to house-hunt for her, with her.  Houlihan/Lawrence Real Estate had been my first employer and I returned to their website and entered a few parameters into the search function.
I quickly navigated away from searching for condos for my sister to wistful thoughts of my dream home.  I looked at properties all over the world from New Zealand to the Adirondacks, rolling hill and jagged coast line. I found properties in my old home county of Westchester that were reasonably priced.  I excitedly flicked through a few houses and their accompanying pictures before I turned to my dear husband and asked if would join in my day-dreaming.  A few hours later, we had a list of 10 properties that might be fun to check out.

"Can we look at a few of these?" I asked.
"Sure, why not," my dear husband replied.
