The Old Church

"It's a church."

"Not in over a decade. Stained glass's intact, though. That'll work for the studio. No termites, the foundation's good, plus five acres for farming."

"You have a lot of wood to replace."

"I'll use wood from the old barn."

"Plumbing?"

"Works, mostly. Same with electricity and propane."

Dad shook his head. "You have both bandwidth and bats in the belfry."

I grinned. "That was a selling point for me."

"Of course it was. It's your money."

"Give me three months, and you won't recognize. My home and graphics studio will come alive."

"Your Mama would've been proud."
