JoAnn and I made a profit on the Pimmit Hills House in Virginia. It was a "Cape Cod" style home in a subdivision of countless identical homes.

Originally built for WW2 veterans, We bought ours for $70,000. Then we had a wood burning stove installed for $3,000. After living there for a year we sold the place for $83,000 and divided the profit in two. I paid off a car loan I had and moved back into the condo in Oxon Hill Maryland.

I enjoyed the wood burning stove because it was fun to drink wine and make love while looking at the fire. I also went into the woods and chainsawed fallen trees for firewood. On occasion I would get "Seeded" [high] on Heavenly Blue Morning Glory Seeds and go chainsawing. It's a mild psychedelic drug.

I also went to the Fourth of July concert at the Washington Monument while "Seeded". That concert featured the Beach Boys with Jimmy Page and Joan Jet. Over half a million people and then they had fireworks. The fireworks exploded right over the audience and burning explosives hit the ground where I was lying down. It was exciting to pay attention to where the dangerous burning embers were landing and to jump out of the way before I got burned.
