I have live in one of those prefab houses for 35 years. When I was 14 I saw that house several times, and fell inlove with it, because it set in the mist of four big trees. In 1976, I worked with a lady who's husband was a realator,and he was trying to sale a house for a guy that was moving, I had gotten married a year earlier. When we went to see the house, low and behold, it was the same one I saw at 14. It was a nice neighborhood then, not so much any more, but I still love my little house. When I saw the article, it was like going back in time, my living room walls are still paneled, but painted. I'm so glad we never moved, because now at 60, it's not so hard to keep it clean. We put down laminate floors in 2007,in the living room and kitchen, I love it, my plan now is to put it, at least in our bedroom this summer, we plan to do this one ourselves. When you come in my front door, there use to be a closet, a year ago I turned it into a Fireplace, it is awesome the way I did it, you would think it has always been there. I love creating and fixing things from a little or nothing. I don't believe in paying someone to do what I know I can do. Your article made me feel even more blessed to have this little house, when so many are loosing theirs. I keep hearing how builders are starting to cut down on the size of new homes now with the economy. I think people long for the simple things in life again. Thank You Mae Ellis shortstuff50@comcast.net
