It's been so fun to get your emails and see your purchases. So far you have tried to <a href="http://retrorenovation.com/2008/07/23/retro-flooring-anita-finds-a-stash-of-vintage-aqua-tile-any-takers-out-there/" rel="nofollow">kill us with asbestos tiles</a>... then, you made up for it with <a href="http://retrorenovation.com/2008/09/11/anita-buys-a-1962-delmonico-stereo-console/" rel="nofollow">that wicked awesome stereo</a>... What's next? I'm sure it will be good! Yes, dearie, it sounds like there is a 60s ranch out there waiting just for you and Nathan, when the time is right! :) Anita – Thank YOU for such a lovely note.

I had for years been thinking of things I had to have in the house and have a list started. We have done quite a bit in an effort to get the vintage feel in this house, but of course are working with all new architcture, moldings, doors etc. After seeing so many posts on this website about the amazing houses of the 1960s and drooling over them I realize now that finding one of those homes would fill so many items on my 'custom home checklist' and would fit us perfectly. I am in constant awe of the style, colors, fabrics and what seems to be true innovation of the time (unlke my 2001 nothing-is-unique house). The website has made me reminisce of my aunts & uncles and cousins homes that were 1960s groovy, the courtyards that sat in the center of the house, the planter space along the real stone wall in the living room, the large angled windows near the ceiling etc. When the housing market turns back around and we get to sell this place and move on, it will be a move to a fabulous 1960s ranch. What a great thing to look forward to! Thanks for all the inspiration!
